    Hello from Australia! I have eggs and not much idea what to do!

    The problem with ripping grass and give to them is they end up eating great long bits of it and it kind of knots up in their crops. When they peck growing grass they break lil bits off that their crops can handle. The chick starter is fine and possible the brewers yeast that sumi (I think)...
