LCG Chicken Coop
Crowing
Hi,
We've successfully transferred our flock of 17 to the a big coop. They are 6 weeks old, and I am loading up two small treat balls each day just to make their day a little more interesting. They love barley grass which I sprout for them, but I heard that chicks should only eat small clippings rather than down the whole blade of grass and harm their crop/digestive tract? When can I sprout a small pan of grass and just place it in the coop? (I'll break it into smaller subdivisions to minimize the chaos.)
Thanks for any input!
