For the first few weeks until the season gets well under way we make up our orders for Starter individually so that the feed is consistently fresh. Early hatched chicks have particular need for a well formulated feed. Their vitamin requirements are high, and their needs for minerals for good bone growth put a heavy responsibility on the quality of the feed they receive. f Shur-Gain Chick Starter Shur-Gain Chick Starter has been especially designed to suit the needs of newly hatched chicks and provide them with nutrients that assure fast feathering, fine bloom and leg colour^ rapid growth, health and vigour. Give your chicks the advantages of Shut-Gain Chick Starter and watch them grow.
