Will scratch feed hurt 7week chicks?

[LynnGrigg]

My 19 chicks are already out in a lot and being fed grower feed as well as free ranging/grazing. I'd like to assume that they will be ok if they haven't choked to death so far but I'd like to treat the 3 older hens to a little scratch(cracked corn). I wondered if that might be a bad idea with the little ones...-though mostly I have heavy breed chicks and they are pretty big already at seven weeks.

I HAVE GIVEN TO MY 6 WEEK OLDS, AND ALL SEEMS TO BE OK, SO FAR. THEY HAVE HAD IT JUST A FEW TIMES. HOPE THIS HELPS OUT -
