So I'm nearing the end of a long integration of my 2 small flocks...yey! They've been in look-no touch, then look-limited touch for about 5 weeks. It's gone great!

Now I'm almost ready to fully mix them full-time but want to be sure I get their feed correct!

My original 3 hens are 2 years old eating Layer feed. With oyster shells and baked eggshells available all the time for extra calcium.

My 3 12-week olds are on a Grower feed they are supposed to continue to 20 weeks.

I believe I'm supposed to remove the Layer feed now and everyone eats Grower feed, correct?
 
Honestly, I never gave my last round of chicks grower feed. Everyone of all ages (ranging from 3 days old, 4 weeks, 1 year, to 2 years) have all been on layer feed and they've all done very well.
