Baby chicks are like human newborns. You can't expect a brand new baby to eat steak and potatoes, and you can't expect week-old chicks to eat raw veggies.
If you supply them with chick grit, however, they can peck away at a leaf of lettuce, some soft melon or papaya, or other soft stuff, even meal worms.
But they need the grit to digest it. If you feed only their starter feed, grit isn't necessary.
