I would call the manager at the tractor supply, tell him the date your bought the chicks and he should know when the chicks were shipped. They would have been shipped as day olds. ETA It is very nice to know the date they hatched so you can speculate when they will start laying eggs.

For 2/3 week old chicks, I'd hold off on treats. They are small and are better off with a nutritionally complete feed till they are older. I don't give anything other than what they find free ranging till they're about 10-15 weeks old. If you must give treats, make sure they also have...

True. All things in moderation.

Yes they love watermelon and lettuce but why is everyone on this thread so averse to providing their omnivores meat and fish? That's what they really crave.

guts of 'possums?

Grilled Opossum.

Yesterday it was watermelon, today it will be grilled opossum.

The ban has since been lifted but since poultry safety has a good name right now, many are reluctant to abandon the vegetarian feed.

Vegetarian poultry feed was in response to diseases passed on to other livestock like mad cow disease. It was mandated by law in many places that no meat products would be fed to livestock.

Watermelon and peaches. I went to a couple roadside stands and picked up what they were throwing away.

They can't take one down but woe the poor calf that stumbles and can't get up.
