Advice - Organic pellets or not?

Hi Everyone, 
I am just coming to the end of my first bag of feed. My book had suggested buying the best feed you could afford so I purchased Small Holder organic, not just because it was organic but it also had the longest shelf life at the feed merchants, which was another thing my book had said to look out for. However while reading other posts on here I have discovered that the ordinary feeds include things that help prevent illnesses while the organic do not  (correct me if i'm wrong). So my question is this if you are not aiming for organic eggs, should you just buy the ordinary layers pellets? My aim is to have healthy chickens over organic fed chickens, although both would be nice. 

the small holder range is not organic but is gm free, I feed mine on organic (Allen and page the same as the small holder range is but in brown sacks) and even though I am not organic all of the time at home and will give my chickens any medication they need as prescribed by my vets so this makes them non organic I just love the taste of the yolks that the Allen and page produces. Some people say you cant tell the difference but having eaten eggs from chickens fed on other feed I think you can. The sad thing is though is that Allen and Page stuff does seem to be very very expensive

I'm not sure what you mean by 'feeds include things that help prevent illnesses'. I may well be wrong but as far as I am aware only chick crumbs ACS contain medication. Obviously chicks will NOT be laying eggs. But if an ACS food is fed to a laying bird the eggs should NOT be eaten.

Apologies if I have misunderstood?!

anti cocci is only in chick crumb and growers never in layers. Even then birds fed on this feed can still get coccidiosis and then in order to treat them you have to change their feed to one that doesn't have the anti cocci in and give your chicks something like coxoid or baycox. Organic feeds never have anti cocci medication in it.
