I heard from a friend the other day that the layer feed has too much calcium for babies so I don't want to put mine on it too soon. I have some 7 week old chicks that are starting to jump/fly out of their little corral so I'm thinking they are going to join the rest of the flock soon. In the meantime, do I buy another large bag of grower feed or let them start on the layer feed? It's hard when they are all together to keep them from eating each other's food so I guess I'm looking for the best option:
- put both kinds of feed out and hope they eat what they are supposed to? (which I'm sure will never happen lol)
- put layer feed out and just let the chicks eat that too?
- put grower feed out and let my laying hens eat that too?
