Hey Skinnyroo? how did this story end?

I had some losses the last 3 years to this, then I realized I didn't buy chick starter as I bought only duck starter as I have geese/goslings. (the Amprol in chick starter will kill waterfowl as they can't "process" it.) now I have chicks and two goslings just hatched. it'd be handy to keep them together (which I will for a short while) but I plan to get rid of the geese altogether (and upgrade my brooding facilities). I have to simplify things.

I don't think you can get the medicated chick starter any longer.

Still selling it at my feed store. Amprolium isn't an antibiotic so I don't think it will be removed from shelves.
