Treats for chicks?

[Easter_Egger04]

Hi, I’m new to backyard chickens. I just got 4 Easter Egger chicks (so cute!!!) and was wondering what some good treats are for them? I gave them crickets and they loved them!
Thanks

Mine go crazy over worms. They fond one in the yard over the weekend and I thought they might kill each other over it so we broke it up and gave them each some and they were the happiest chicks ever

mealworms, crickets, moths, peanuts (crushed for size), greens (cabbage, lettuce, dandilion, clover, etc.) and make sure to offer chick sized grit for digestion.

Hard boiled egg yolk. They go nuts for it.

Tiny tiny pieces of strawberry and cabbage were a huge hit. They also liked cottage cheese. I'm going to try brovolli again. I think as long as they can have it, mine will eat it. They get a treat before bed. That way I know they are their food all day and the small treat is just a treat.

Just tried cut up grapes this evening. I placed them on a shallow plastic lid and put them in the brooder. The chicks were curious but formed a tight circle equidistant around the grapes - curious but not yet daring to try. Finally one dashed in, took a piece and ran off. Then all of them were interested and followed suit. Grapes gone in mere seconds. Otherwise, mealworms, minced raw carrot, Brussels sprouts leaves, and apple have been enjoyedas treats.

17 chicks that are 5 weeks old.
