Chicks first poop, normal or not?

[FluffySilkie]

It was a clear greenish yellow, watery poop, is this normal or should I be concerned?

How old are they? Like JUST hatched? I believe their first poops look like that until they start eating food : )

Normal for Newbies. It will take a little time for their bodies to adjust to solid food. Congrats on the hatch!

When do I start feeding solid food?

They did another one with a solid green center

I generally just offer food once they're fully fluffed up and done with their first big long "phew just got hatched" nap! I grind up the food and "peck" at it with a finger to encourage them, generally there after they learn from the other chicks once one or two got it down
