We have 17 week old hens that should be laying in a few weeks (HOPE HOPE HOPE) and we also have 8 week old pulletts in the same coop.
What should we feed them when the older ones are ready to lay and the younger ones need to be on starter / grower feed?

Thanks in advance

It is ok for the 8 weeks old. That's why it is called Flock Raiser, for Flocks with different kinds of life stages and even different kind of poultry......

I'm now using Dumor Chick Starter/Grower 20%, so if I understand correctly, keep feeding this and have oyster shell available in a few weeks when the older ones start laying.

Sorry I'm so dumb about this, I just want to feed them the right stuff.

No take them off the starter. Dunmor is the cheap version of Purina. Go to the Flock Raiser much better. You will see a big improvment in you flock. Also check your local Yellow Pages un Feed store or mills. You can find better feed than Purnina at a way better price.

They have the same ingredients listed on the bag, so how do we know Dumor is worse than Purina? I've used both in the past & never noticed a difference.
