Chick feed?

[Chicken0Boy]

What is the best feed for my chicks? Also what is the ratio of sugar to water? How long do I put sugar in the chicks water?

A lot of people use different brands of feed. Some like the medicated and such. I use the Start and Grow by Purina. They make lots of types of chick feeds out there. Now, the sugar to water, I'm not so sure of. Someone will pipe up here shortly.

I put a half cup sugar for every gallon of water for the first 2 days. Have fun!

the sugar water isn't a must have though, it is mainly to make sure they drink the water. if your's are drinking water just fine, I would 86 the sugar and put a 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar per quart. that is for over all health benefits
