fruit for chicks?

can i feed my chicks cantelope or grapes if they have grit they are 4 weeks old

My chickens wont eat cantelope but they love grapes. It probably wont hurt them in moderation. I'm sure if they came upon it on there own they would eat it. Personally at 4 weeks I wouldn't feed them anything but chick starter.

I feed fruit and vegetable to my chicks from day one. There's no problem with it, just be sure that they have grit and are getting a balanced diet--they can't eat nothing but fruit, just like human kids.

My chicks are 4 weeks old and they LOVE grapes, it's their favorite. They also enjoy little applesauce, cottage cheese, yogurt, and flax seed. Offer grit and they should be fine. Sometimes I give them bread and other little leftovers like veggies. I also bought them some worms and crickets, oh what fun to watch!!!
