Different Kinds of Feed for Baby Chicks

Hi I am Dr. T.K. Roy, speaking on behalf of Expert Village, When they started growing, then they give them growth feed, then the adult feed, and the last feed when they start laying, then you give them the lay feed and our feed will be still lower in protein content after a certain period they don't grow they are just feed to maintain the growth they have already achieved.. They are a little more because they are laying eggs. Particularly calcium is a limiting factor, when the birds start laying for the production of the egg shell they require a lot of calcium so we are to provide calcium additionally in the feed very common source of calcium is oyster shell bits, break down the oyster shell and you give it in a formula inside the brooding box and the laying box. That is a very cheap but good source of calcium for the laying birds. Thank you very much
