Tropican

Postby Patti In Oz on Tue Oct 21, 2008 7:25 pm

I started using Tropican HR Formula this year on the advice of a very experienced breeder. I'm very happy with it thus far. The problem is, it's not that readily available here, so the shops buy 5 kg bags and then resell it in kilo lots. I've never actually seen the label. I have some Blue Princess eggs in a mate of mine's incubator at the moment, and am not sure whether Tropican is suitable for feeding chicks straight out of the egg. I've tried HARI's website as well as an extensive internet search and still have been unable to find a link where I can just read the label for myself. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or give me input as to whether this is suitable for straight out of the egg chicks??? If I am confidant it is the best way to go I will order my own 5 kg bag, but don't want to waste money if it's not the right choice.

Thanks
