Feeding baby chicks

[jademccun1]

Can you give 3 or 4 day old small amounts of vegtables?

Personally I wouldn't because to much can cause loose stools and then you would have the problem of pastey butt etc. I would wait until they are older

I agree, at this age I don't feed anything other then their chick starter. Also, if you do start feeding stuff besides the starter then you'll need to also supply chick grit.

First off, do your chicks have access to grit, r dirt where they can pick out small stones needed to grind their food? If yes, give them vegetables or practically whatever they want. It will be good for them, they can eat many things, there is a good list somewhere about chicken food...it is recommended to continue chick starter as their maintanence diet.
