I am wondering if anyone has any insight as to how long you should wait to feed baby chicks table scraps? In the past I have usually wiated a good 8-10 weeks, but i'm not sure if I should be waiting longer, or just let the baby chicks tell me when they are ready to venture out and try something new.
 
I usually start mine as soon as they start to show an interest in the scraps. Mine seem to know when I am carrying the scrap bucket, they all run to the gate to greet me.
Mine are almost 11 weeks old and they have started showing interest in the scraps for about 2 weeks now. I don't usually give them much tough because I think that they need the starter more t this early age.
 
Thanks so much for the advice... I think I'll wait a few more weeks until they are closer to like you said 11 weeks :)
