Chirping
I finally got the chickens moved from the basement to the coop last Friday! They are 11 weeks old. Do I need to give them anything besides starter feed, water and grit? I gave them probiotics & electrolytes over the weekend, because the smallest pullet was limping. (She is better now.) They managed to pour out an entire gallon in the coop the next morning and proceeded to bed down in the wet pine bedding. I guess it felt good in the heat! Do they need probiotics & electrolytes or ACV on a regular basis? Just when they’re sick/injured? When it is REALLY HOT? Anything else I’m forgetting that they need? Since they don’t have access to the yard yet, I pick clover for them as treats & occasionally give dried meal worms. Am I forgetting anything?
