Flax seed chicks buzz?

[TeenageRooster's Dad]

Ok, weird one but bear with me...

Got 2 3 weeks old, been on chicks feeds since, some vitamined water.

Gave them flax seeds earlier, dismissed, no reaction at first, then got a taste and went nuts on them.

2 minuets later, they're comatose-ish, sorta dusting around-like amd rolling on each other like it's the late 60's...

they're all good but that reminded me of cats with catnip...

ever heard of such a flax buzz?

My pigeons used to react somewhat like that after a flax treat. Why not try some ?

That is interesting! Sadly, doesn't seem to have the same effect on me.

Do not mix with alcohol.

Tried to crush some and smoke 'em... nasty stuff...

Oh this is so funny. Nope, never heard of it but now I want to try it. Aldi sells bags of flax seed in the baking section for like $4. It would be worth it to see this.
