How do I stop my young chicks from eating their pine shaving bedding?

[CoolChickenPerson]

My chicks tend to try to eat their pine shaving bedding from time to time despite the fact their feeder is right next to them, how do I stop this?

Idk,I would just change the bedding.

Shavings should be larger than flake, which do you actually have?

If it's a fine bedding, I'd switch to larger flake. I use aspen for bigger flakes.

In either case I'd offer grit. My chicks always eat some of their flooring, it's a natural instinct to investigate their environment.
