Chick Grit Substitutes?

[saving grace]

Alternatively you can get adult grit and use a sieve to sift out the tiniest pieces, and those should work fine for chicks.

This worked perfectly.

 

[My Very First 6 Chickens]

My chicks are soon to be 2 weeks old, and I want to start feeding them treats in small amounts. We tried to get some chick grit at two different tractor supply stores, but they don't sell it there. The employees didn't even know what it was and were laughing.

I really want to start feeding them things other than chick starter, and also want to take them outside soon. Are there any chick grit substitutes I can use?

How can an employee at Tractor supply not know what Chicken grit is????? That blows my mind and is disturbing
