Ok so I've got a few questions about a few things that I think y'all will be the best people to ask.... For more info on them and how I came to have them read my other post: HELP! Rescued Baby peepers!
1) what is the easiest, cheapest quickest way to build a fenced in area for a short amount of time? They need some yard time, but unfortunately with 4 of em I can't watch em the whole time. And i do not want them to get(fly/jump) out of it, so a roof/lid is a must...
Plus they need more bugs...
2) do chicks eat ants? What's an easy way to get more buggies/protein into their diet without simply buying buggy's? There are not any tackle shops here due to national park limits or I would.
3) What sort of greens have you found your baby peepers like?!? (Mine DONT like anything I've given them)
4)My male Chick started sneezing last night, have not noticed it today. Is it usual for them to sneeze?
5) at what age should I turn them loose completely?
7) if I make sure they have access to grit, will they take it on their own? (Please keep in mind that They were wild chickies)
8) how much time should I spend with them? They all seem to crave my attention now a days. But they need to be able to survive on their own. plus Im not here year round(not here for like 3 months), though of course I will give food when I can. They're not my pets. They're cute and hilarious watching, but like I said their rescue chicks and must go back on eventually.
Thanks for any advice and other awesome information / tips y'all may have!!!
