The Last Watermelon Scene from Ice Age

[LizGio]

Just a fun post! I went outside with my 5yo son to collect some organic material from our property to help build our new chicks' immune systems. We tore up some clover and dandelion leaves along with their flowers (torn up), last year's dirt/mulch mix, and soil from our 2-year abandoned vegetable garden. If you've ever seen Ice Age, you may recall the scene with the dodos. When we added the material, it played out just like that! I couldn't even get a good picture. They're so blurry because they were moving around like the roadrunner from Looney Tunes!

Can I do the clover and dandelions for my young chicks or do you think it may not work since they are younger than yours

Do they have grit?

They can't have anything but chick feed unless they have grit.

Great question! I'm not an expert but I'd say make sure you have chick grit before giving them anything other than crumble.

Start them with very tiny amounts.

Like 1 lobe of a clover leaf per chick.
