Unmedicated chick mash

[James M.]

I got a 5Lb bag at the feed store for two bucks. It says "chick groth" on the peace of papper in the bag that acts as the lable, witch has the ingredints and such as well. But what I wandering is if this is the right stuf? I was looking the ingredints over and its got a lot of vitamin suplaments in it. Oh, I am feeding discoids.
Thanks,
James M.

Sounds like you got the right stuff. Nothing wrong with vitamins, it's when they start adding antibiotics that problems can arise. It can kill the gut fauna insects need to digest plant matter. It seems to cause more problems for crickets than it does cockroaches, however.
