Can a chicks diet be fully of scrambled eggs

[Bryce Thomas]

Or should that just be a treat thing? I wanna consider feeding some of my baby silkies scrambled eggs for protein to grow

it should not be their only source of nutrition, no. Feed as a supplement if you like, alongside properly formulated chick crumbs, ideally medicated ones to help them avoid coccidiosis

As a treat it is okay.

And all treats should be limited

Baby chicks should have their chick food and fresh water only. It’s very important that they develop properly, and they will fill up on the eggs and not eat their vitamin and mineral fortified food. I would hold off on any treats until your chicks are a few months old. But when it comes to treats, rule of thumb for birds of any age is moderation.
