Product Overview
Greatness starts on day one. Purina® Start & Grow® Medicated chicken feed contains amprolium (not an antiboitic) to aid in the prevention of coccidiosis. Our 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.

Feeding Directions
Description
Feed Purina® Start & Grow® Medicated feed to layer chicks from day one through week 18 as at least 90 percent of the chick’s diet. Transition to Purina® Layena®, Purina® Layena®+ Free Range or Layena®+ Omega-3 feed at week 18.
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.
Important
Please consult the feed tag sewn onto this bag for specific feeding instructions.
