Hi and welcome to BYC. Proprietary store-bought food is likely the best you can feed your birds, imo though nothing is written in stone

Here are some helpful links:

• Great go-to resource - Articles
• Insightful feedback on how members manage their flocks - Topic of the Week back-catalogue

Best wishes

Welcome!!! So glad you can join us! Do you have chickens? If so how long have you had them? What breeds do you have? Do you have any pics you could show us? Sorry thats a lot of questions, can't wait to get to know you! Good luck with everything!

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Yes they sure do love the treats! However don't overfeed anything at this age, they need all the essential nutrients in their chick starter to grow healthy. Treats need to be kept to 10% or less of the diet.

Enjoy your babies and welcome to our community!

Hi and welcome to BYC!! We're glad you joined us! It's also a good idea to offer chick grit if you feed them anything other than chick starter feed.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
You might want to read up a bit about oatmeal and chickens. Your chicks should be getting nothing but a complete chick starter to give them a healthy start in life.
