Treats for baby chicks

[Sc00ter4900]

How old should my chicks be before I can give them treats like scatch and fresh veg. Thanks Scotty

We give ours dried mealworms at about 7 days

I think its the same for other stuff. Once they have a good grasp of what chick food is, how to eat it and not to eat the bedding you can try them with small amounts of different things. I think boiled egg some people give sooner but we never have spare eggs in our house.. they are either in the bator or on toast

Be warned too much of something new will give them the squits.... not good!! Brocolli might be a good place to start, you can hang a small branch to give them something fun to do and the tiny 'leaves' are the same size as chick crumb!
