Treats

[Karen W.]

Hello everyone!!! I am a newby! I have 10 silkies that were 2weeks on Tuesday. When should I introduce them to treats??

 

[RodNTN]

You can introduce them anytime time, just make sure they have access to grit. And you limit the treats you are giving them. What do you want to give them? My chicks always went crazy for oats, mealworms, and sunflower seeds. They'll love any insect though

I saw some mealworms and something called babycakes, which looked like different seeds. I just don't want to give them anything that will hurt them. Thanks!!!

 

[RodNTN]

Mealworms can't hurt, and neither can suet. Just make sure you offer grit before the treats I let my chickens have 24/7 access to grit. You're welcome!
