Lime and chicks

[joskt0204]

We just had our pastures and yard limed by the big agricultural truck. I've moved the tractor to an area he didn't treat, but is lime dangerous for chicks? Mine are almost a month old.

As long as it is agriculture lime they will be fine.

I have a 50 gallon drum half full of ag lime in the horse barn and my hens hatch out chicks in there all the time.
