They came! I got to work this morning and the PO called. I turned around and went to get them. 26 tiny fluff balls. It looks like 3 different kinds. I'll post pix later for help identifying.

I bought a 50# bag of game bird starter. I just discovered that it has worms and bugs in it

I saw one of the chicks with a worm in his beak and then noticed a few more in the feeder, but the chicks were gobbling them! I hope that's okay...should I throw out the feed? or is is still safe to feed them?

I mean "keets"....this will take some getting used to.lol

 

[Mrs. Fluffy Puffy]

Awe!

Looks like you have 4 Pied, 6 Lavender, 14 Pearl Ginea Keets!

What kind of bugs are in their feed? If they're small enough the keets can eat and the food isn't moldy I'd keep feeding it to them!

 

[RockyToggRanch]

They look like pantry moth larvae. But there are also little black bugs. The feed doesn't look moldy at all. The keets are gobbling them as soon as I put fresh feed in there. None of them have choked.

There are 26 in there. 6 are bluish color, 6 are chipmonk with white sides and the rest are all chipmonkish. I looked at website pix with the diff colors, but i'm lost:/

I must have counted wrong .. sorry!

The Blue ones are Lavender, the chip-munk colors ones are Pearl and the White & brown ones are Pied.
