Purina Start & Grow Medicated Crumble Poultry Feed - 25 lb

Purina Start & Grow Medicated chicken feed contains amprolium (not an antiboitic) to aid in the prevention of coccidiosis. Feed gives your chicks a strong start and enhances early hen development. Raise chicks from day one to laying age (18–20 weeks) with feed that supports their digestive health and immune function – and aids in the protection against coccidiosis where immunity is not desired.

If your birds have not been vaccinated for coccidiosis or if you're unsure of their vaccination status, we recommend feeding your birds Purina Start & Grow Medicated.

Caution

Use as the sole source of amprolium. Do not change the litter while giving this feed unless absolutely necessary. If losses exceed 0.5% in a two (2) day period, obtain an accurate diagnosis, and follow the instructions of your veterinarian or poultry pathologist. Losses may result from intercurrent disease or other conditions under field conditions. In replacement flocks, the grower must expect that excessive exposure to one or more species may overwhelm the drug in some flocks and prompt treatment will be required. Do not use in feeds containing bentonite.
