How to feed chicks grit

[Chickaroo!]

This may be a dumb question, but....when you give chicks grit, do you sprinkle it in their food or put it in a seperate bowl and let them eat it as they may?

The info I got from MMH was to sprinkle it on the food like salt..... That is what we did and it seems to be working great!!

I was wondering about this as well... when we gave the babies mealworms this weekend, I sprinkled it on the pile of worms, and they seemed to scoop it right up, almost like instinct. It's amazing how animals seem to know just what they need sometimes!

Yes - sprinkle it on their food.
