I have a question. I got 4 buckeyes and one is almost feathered at 6 weeks while the other 3 aren't. They were supposed to be all hens but does early maturing mean anything? Thanks in advance

I will be picking up my first buckeye chicks on Monday, but have read through this thread that they require a higher protein feed. My choice seems to be Farmer's Helper Ultra Kibble for chicks (http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/farmers-helper-ultrakibble-for-chicks-36-oz) which shows a 32.23% protein. My other choice is Manna Pro Gambird/Showbird Starter at 24% (http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/manna-proreg;-gamebird-showbird-feed-5-lb) All other choices are adult food like Dumor's Winning Show Feed at 22% ( http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/dumorreg;-winning-show-poultry-feed-40-lb). Which one is best? I have Dominques coming as well with this batch- will this work for them as well?
