I have a question. I have a new chick! The chick hatched on the 21st of this month. What a proud parent I am!
The chick appears to be healthy, two wings, two feet, etc. All the parts seem to be there...
My question is how often and how much should I feed the new baby? It wants to eat like every 20 minutes. Should I be giving it medicated feed or (?) I am trying to do everything naturally. I have placed garlic in the drinking water for all my birds and have given the older ones some plain yogurt (one of them coughed). The chicken coop next door has come down with something. (coughs and sneezing)
Should I give the new baby some yogurt? I want it to be healthy but at the same time I don't want chickens that are laden with antibiotics.....What is your opinion of vaccinations?
And what about oatmeal? Can I use Quaker Oats Regular?
.....this is the new chick
