Expanding diet from starter feed

[Sunnymommy]

I have 8 almost 5 week old chickies that have only had starter feed and some kefir. Can I start giving them veggies if I also buy chick grit? Their coop is half done. They are still in a big tub on the porch.

I don't think it's possible for most of us to delete posts.

Don't be in a hurry to expand the diet. The starter feed provides all the nutrients they need in the proper ratios. Adding things will alter that balance. As an example, veggies may have vitamins and minerals but not protein.
