@Fire Ant Farm, this link has some good pictures of discolored intestines that would probably be visible in chicks: http://www.myoops.org/twocw/tufts/courses/5/content/215773.htm

Warning, contains graphic necropsy pictures.

Try live King meal worms, mine love those!

I tried raising meal worms a few years ago, for fish bait. Bedded them in oatmeal, which was also their food source. Most of the seed stock was found in chicken manure, some was leftover bait, which was larger than the wild variety. I gave up after they ate their way out of their container; raising meal worms in styrofoam containers is NOT a good idea!

Thanks. I tried them once. I think it gets too hot and cold here to keep them going. Or I did something wrong.
