Thanks for answering so quickly. I have them on grower crumbles now and have just started to offer the oyster shell and the pullet that has started laying is gobbling the shell no one else has given it a second glance. I didn't know if it was alright to leave them or if I should change to game feed or if there was another option.

RE: Feed question

Sorry dont know how to do the fancy little box thing lol. I feed all of my bantams from day old to full grown adults all get purina flock raiser....I'm pretty sure it's 20% protein and its in crumbles. For my layers I just ad some oyster shell.

I'm guessing its about the same as starter/grower etc. but this isn't medicated, to my knowledge anyway.
