It is a pleasure

I see someone else suggested you give them some sand from outside to eat. If you put it in a big bowl or box for them you will see they do the same thing in the sand. They will love it and it's very cute to watch

Ha!!! That's so funny and great at the same time


Totally natural! Make the grit pan bigger so they can roll in the dirt and dust bathe; that's what they've been trying to do!

Canary food won't have the right balance of nutrition for them, but if you give it to them temporarily it won't hurt them. I found another article that suggests mixing it with wheat, corn, oatmeal and meat to make it more balanced for them. You can probably use lentils instead of the meat. It will be much easier if you can find them chick food though.

I've never seen shell grit like that before, but I think it might be too much calcium for small chicks.

You can add barley too. Whatever you can find to balance it out will help. If the pieces are too big for the chicks you can crush it a bit.
