Description
Kalmbach Feeds 18% Start Right Chick Feed is an all-in-one, all-natural complete feed for starting and growing chicks that delivers complete, balanced nutrition from hatch all the way to laying age. Fill the feeder with one crumble and you are done—no extra supplements, no guesswork.

Key Features
- Complete and balanced: One feed carries your birds from hatch until laying age, approximately 16 weeks, with no additional supplements required.
- 18% protein: Supports healthy early growth, muscle development, and feathering in chicks and pullets.
- LifeGuard blend: A proprietary blend of prebiotics, probiotics, essential oils, and digestive enzymes supports gut health, immune function, and digestion.
- All-natural recipe: Made with corn, soybean meal, and added vitamins and minerals—contains no animal protein products, and never any antibiotics or added hormones.
- Easy-to-eat crumble: Uniform crumbles are sized right for small beaks, encouraging consistent intake with less sorting and waste.
Feeding Directions
Feed continuously as the sole ration from hatch to laying age, approximately 16 weeks. Maintain a clean, fresh supply of water to the birds at all times. Once pullets reach laying age, transition your flock to a complete layer feed.
