chick treats...

[gino100]

So I have a few 3 week and 2 week old chicks.. I bought some meal worms for them for a treat..a couple pecked at em for a second, but they don't seem to like them at all.. totally not interested in them. You think they are a bit young still or just meal worm snobs. LOL. What should I offer as a treat they that might enjoy.

I bought what was called a "chick stick". It hangs. They LOVED it. Ate almost the whole thing in a week.

I tried that one too.. Same thing. Pecked at it, but didn't care for it. Looks like my girls are finicky!

Are you using live mealworms? Ive found that my chicks are only interested in the mealworms if they are alive and moving around.

no they were the dried kind.. Hen treats I think is what they are called..
