I am new to the chick world so I may have lots of questions!
I have 5 chicks that are 2 weeks old today. We are having a warm spell and it is supposed to be 85 here tomorrow. Can I take them outside during the day? (I will of course protect them from predators) Or is it too soon to eat weeds and bugs and whatever else they may find? So far I have only fed them chick food, no grit (which I just read about - didn't know they needed so early)... does that matter?
Thanks!
