Feed Tags:
This is what I feed BABIES...not always medicated, I can add Amprolium to their water, and often do, in which case I feed Unmedicated Chick stater so they do not get overdosed with Amprolium.
So this is baby food

This is what I call GROWER chick feed, it is for growing on birds, or as we call them, Started Birds:
So at about 2 months old, to about 1 year old, they get this awesome feed:


I include this for your comparison:


I include this for your comparison also, I do not use any Purina products unless I absolutely have to...seriously all this scratch has in it is corn & wheat & SOYBEAN OIL !



DuMor Layer from Tractor supply:

Paybacl layer pellets from Bi-Mart...my birds prefer, but they will eat DuMor from Tractor supply...


So I use the regular chick feed, then the 24% chick feed, then go to layer ration after the growth spurt.
I add scratch from Payback, which has 5 or 6 different grains, and I cannot find a tag.....it has 5 grains and NO SOYBEAN OIL !

The print is all too small for me to read on my iPhone. I will see if VoiceOver will tell me what it says. Or try it on the computer tomorrow.

On a computer you can hit the blow up button & it blows it up....

Who did you get your Silvers from? . They are on my dream list... I need to get my Wheaties going first. But if I ever have more room, Silvers are top on my want list. I just got 2yards of wood chips and shoveled them into the chicken run. I really like it so far, their feet are all clean and the run is dry. They were in a poop soup after all that rain.
