I start giving chicks sprouts and wheat grass when they're about a week old. I just chop it up finely, don't give very much and offer sand or chick sized grit in small amounts. I make sure they've settled in and recovered from shipping for a few days, first. I also only give small amounts.
For older chicks, they can have a little more and a little bit larger pieces. When in doubt, lesser amounts and smaller pieces is the way to go. Full sized chickens can handle it with no problem, just offer grit.
