I have read a few posts and I have noticed the age range has varied between chicken moms & dads.
I have 3 babies that are a week today & 5 more that will be a week on Weds. I am toying with giving them treats because well it just sounds fun!
Will their age be okay? Should I wait until Wed then they all will be a week old?
They have sand in their brooder so I am assuming they do not need chick specific grit? (I do have some though)
What about dandilions? Will this be okay? Do I just give the flowers or can they have the stems too?
It is supposed to rain, I thought about grabbing small worms that have worked their way up. Is this cool?
Is there insects they should NOT eat due to posions?
Small pieces of spaghetti okies?
HERE IS my BIG question...
My hubby has NOT yet fertilized this year but did last year, is that still lingering around? Wouldn't that be all washed away already? We did have a lot of rain.
