Chicken Broth Discarded Remains...

[AvaCabo]

I make my own Chicken Broth in the Instant Pot. The solids (veggies, spices, etc) that remain...are they OK to feed to the chicks? I have made them into squares to freeze and then planned to put them in the suet hanging piñata. Thoughts? Brand new Chick Mom, please don't roast me. Thanks.

I feed my hens the broth making scraps regularly. They're full grown or fairly grown chickens, though...probably wouldn't feed it to very young chicks.

As long as they have chick grit, go ahead.

They're approximately 8 weeks...

Yep, kiddos get the scraps all the time. Good grit and no problems.
But they're maybe a tiny bit spoiled? Or so the hubs says.

ALL of my fur and feathered babies are spoiled! However, my human kids (25yo and 22yo) are also spoiled

My birds get everything left over from the kitchen! I would think babies would like this too...just not too much if they are still really little!
