I would rather not use commercial feed, does anyone have a good homemade starter feed recipe they would share?

Yes, that is what I use. But I add extra stuff to the egg.Boiled eggs have the exacy perfect balance of nutrients for a growing chick. Boiled egg and water alone will be sufficient for the first 5 to 8 weeks of a chicks life. The egg does not just contain protein but all the neccesary nutrients needed for a healthy growing chick. How else would a chick grow in an egg if it was only high in protein. Remember Stewarts the question is feed for CHICKS not adult laying hens. I agree eggs do have too much protein for a laying hen however for a chick they are the perfect staple feed.
