Accidently brought home a breeder bag of gamebird feed that has about 2% calcium... meant to get the developer ... is this okay to feed my 3 - 4 month old mixed flock (gamebird and chicken chicks) for just this one bag or no? 50 lb bag
 
Just feed it for a day or two, then grab a bag of the developer when you can. Either mix it with the breeder to use it up or hold onto the breeder until they’re laying. A little extra calcium for a couple days isn’t a crisis.
 
@LiizardWiitch, I agree with mixing as mentioned above. But if the 2% is listed as the max, I would not be too concerned about it. For comparison - Nutrena all flock lists 1.9% as the max. Also consider how long that 50# would be fed.
