This is both an economic and health choice. Many small operations like to keep the birds on the chick formula/grower for up to 12 weeks. With Bantams, the larger size of the grain is sometimes a problem for small beaks and crops. As most breeds will not start to lay until they are 4 months old and older it is often a good choice to start the layer pellets in the 4th month.

Is hail ice pellets?

Yes, hail consists of ice pellets that form during thunderstorms with strong updrafts. These updrafts carry water droplets into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere, where they freeze and accumulate layers of ice before falling to the ground. Unlike regular ice pellets, hailstones can vary significantly in size and are often larger due to the multiple layers they acquire during their formation.
