I am very confused about grit. I have four biddies. One is 3weeks, one is 2 weeks and 2 are 1 week. So the guy at the feed store told me that commercial chick starter has grit in it. I have a place here where I get organic starter gluten free yada yada. It does not have grit I am assuming. So the man at the feed store says I can give them just sand, like play sand.
So i put some in a little bowl set it in the brooder. When they found it it looked like they were eating it, which I am assuming is the idea. One of the youngest actually got in it and took a nap. They love it in other words. So is this a good idea? Should they be eating it? I am very confused. Doesn't take much. But some more info on it would be great.
Thanks
