FWIW I agree with Bill C. but IIRC most CC purchased from fish farms are pellet trained. I would get them on some good pellets (For catfish that is somewhere in the 30%+ protein category) to help them get started. Easy food to catch for them with very little additional effort or stress. I feed mine Cargill's 36% Multi Species. All my fish, except bass and YP, hit that, even the FHM.
