Feeding - Progressing to Grower's Pellets

Recommended Posts

I'm weaning my five week old chicks from chick crumbs to growers pellets. So far I've been mixing their chick crumbs with a small a ammount of grower's pellets, and adding a slightly bigger ammount of grower's pellets every day. I thought that this would be a good idea because it would give their tummies time to adjust (I read in a book that if you give them a sudden change of food it might make them sick, you have to give the new food to them gradually and slowly increase the ammounts of the new food), I don't have enough chick crumbs left for a full week anyway. :oops: .

 

Am I doing the right thing, or is there a better way of changing their food?

 

Thanks :D
