I'm just wondering if they will make that connection?
I've been feeding scrambled eggs & buttermilk to my girls for the past few days because I've had some sickness in the flock (coccidiosis, worms). They've been treated and are recovering - the eggs/buttermilk mash is just to help build them back up a little (in addition to regular feed, daily treat of sprouted scratch, & boosted water). I don't plan to keep up the scrambled eggs indefinitely - just until my flock has recovered fully and looks healthy again.
My girls are only 10 weeks old and a long way away from laying, and the eggs/buttermilk has been recommended for sick chicks. I just thought I'd ask because I'm new at this and wonder if I might be creating a headache for myself with egg-eating down the road.
