Dried Mealworms?

[Kash007]

Hey everyone, I was just wondering if it is OK to feed week old baby chicks, dried meal worms just as a treat?

I would wait a few weeks. For a treat, feed them their regular feed, wetted into a mash. All my chicks have loved it. Once they get over their fear of the different dish I use to mix it in.

1-2 a chick is fine, but they should have grit in advance. They may not want to try them at first.

Our chicks love when we wet their crumble/feed into a mash. We call it Chicken Crack because they go crazy for the stuff.

There fine to give at 2 weeks old, I give my chicks live baby mealworms at that age. Doesn't hurt them.

It's fine. My chicks have live mealworms from 2 days old.

My chicks started eating them at 3weeks. I'd suggest only giving them 2-3 each and grit to prevent runny poops otherwise it should be all good
