Feed to layer chicks from hatch until approximately 6 weeks of age.

Chicks should have unlimited access to the feed (ad lib) without restriction.
For the first three days of feeding, it is best to spread some feed on large shallow trays or newspaper to encourage the chicks to eat.
Change the feed regularly so it remains fresh and palatable. After this period, a self-feeder can be used.
Clean, cool, fresh water should always be available.
