Very Happy Aussie chick,
Do I detect a sense of humor there!
Quote:
BB are you suggesting the layers pellets with wormer can make a young bird sick or the Diatom ( suggested earlier in the posts)?

I won't give either till the chickens are 16 weeks? Is this correct?
I'll put them on growers mash/pellets for another 6 to 8 weeks.
AC
naughty naughty good luck with your girls!!
