Well, that would make me extremely happy! :) I also had wondered about the clump of dirt... do you think they are old enough and strong enough, or should I wait? I feel like 3 weeks is a benchmark for them... they were just 2 weeks Monday.
It's ok. :)
Yeah, I was just wondering if they need more oomph. I'm trying to give them the best possible start. I do have some plain yogurt I bought... maybe I could give them some of that 2-3 times a week?

I bought medicated crumbles and the bag says it has pre and probiotics in it... do I need additional?
My chicks are 2 weeks old today. I'm considering a clump of dirt and grass for them... what is your opinion?
Thank you all for the great information. It's definitely a lot to process. There's so much to learn with chickens. I do not have chickens, other than the chicks, so they wouldn't be getting anything helpful from other chickens.... though I could bring in a clump of dirt and grass for them to...
I am only asking because I just read a board saying a couple of their 3 week olds died. It kind of worried me. I thought after a couple weeks they'd be a little hardier... (mine will be 2 weeks tomorrow)
I had them on electrolytes in their water until yesterday. Do I need to buy more...
