Hello , I feed my chickens with Purina Layena Crumbles Premium Layer Feed already several months.
My chickens like to eat this food whenever I make them wet . But lately I noticed that when I do wet there appears to be little dark spots in there. I bought Purina Start & Grow Medicated Feed Crumbles, 25 Pound Bag for my chicks today, and it's even worse.
So I am worrying about feeding this to my chicks ):

If your not liking the looks of the Purina, you could try another brand. What do you have available for you in your area?
I use some Nutrena feeds, and the local feed Mills products as well. Also your birds are big enough for pellets if you wanna try those.

I didn't have problem with Purina before. Three weeks ago I bought Purina Premium Poultry Feed Layena Crumbles and it looked darker than usual. Also, it smelled different, which is why I threw it away.
We went to a different Tractor Supply (which is a further drive) and bought another Purina Layena Crumbles which was of good quality. Yesterday when I bought Purina Start & Grow Medicated Feed Crumble it looked strange again to me ):
Yesterday, due to the experiences I've had with Purina my husband recommended I buy Nutrena NatureWise Layer 16% Crumbles instead.
Now I don't have chick starter. So I plan to feed my chicks the Nutrena Crumbles.

You shouldn't feed chicks or any bird not actively laying eggs a layer ration. The extra calcium isn't good, and the lower protein isn't good for proper growth in young birds.I didn't have problem with Purina before.

Thank you .
The more I look at this feed and try to mix it with water, I see bunch of dark spots.Actually it's piece of dirt. I don't want my chicks to become sick.
