young chickens and "other foods"

IMO, as long as they have grit available, at any age. My mama hens take their babies out at 48 hours old and find all sorts of things for them to eat...bits of grass, seeds, little bugs, and things I don't even know about I'm sure. They barely touch their chick feed...

I was wondering the same thing.
Any suggestions on what else they can eat? Or some thing they definatly SHOULD NOT have? Can they eat grass? Dandilions? Mine are in a box & I'm not sure if I could collect enough little bugs for them...lol.


They seem to be growing like crazy!! We've only had them less than a week & they already have major differences.
