Treats for 5 week old chicks? Ones that don't move?

[Lucy4]

I know I'm a big baby... but I can't do the bug thing. Yet I want to give my girls some fun treats. Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

crumbled hard boiled eggs are yummy!

mine think shredded cheese is a HUGE treat. I don't know if they think it's worms or what but they go crazy!

Grapes are my chicks favorites.

Oh yeah I forgot about he spaghetti noodle thing too. Not a lot of nutrition in them but oh is it ever funny to watch especially when two birds get ahold of the same noodle.

Yogurt.

Are you giving them grit?

My chicks are with their momma, so they eat whatever she tells them to eat!
Carrots, apples, cabbage, lettuce, sprouted lentils, crackers, tomatos, mashed potatoes, bananas (very popular), raisins - those are a few of Lavender and chicks' favorites.

last night I took out carrot peels, cucumber, cauliflower leaves, brocolli. the cucumbers were a huge sucess. There was a race for the carrot peels.

. tonight they got a tomato diced. Hilarious!

I did 1/4" long crickets today (my chicks are 3.5 weeks), along with a bowl of grit, and OMG my kids and I couldn't stop laughing.

I went to the pet store, got 2 dozen so I could have some for other times, went home and let them put some in. Too funny!! You oughta try it...it's no worse than what they'll find scratching around in their pen when they're older

I am so glad to read that its the treats that don't move..... I guess I am tired because I thought you were trying to get your chickens to move ...... lol I really am too tired to be online. Have a great night!

My chicks are only 1 week old. Is it too soon to give treats? I have grit already for when the time comes.
