From Chicks
To Checks
if there is one feed that completeness and quality of
the ration are all-important, it is your chick starter.
Since chicks consume only very small qualities of
feed, it is absolutely essential that they get their
full quota of needed nutrients in every beakful. Start
with good chicks—then insure future profits with
top quality starter and that means Purina Chick
Startena.
