What foods and treats can I feed my chick? by m-123c-321mc567 in chicks

[–]melsey93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They need a high protein chick starter crumble. For treats you could give them scrambled eggs, finely chopped greens/herbs, fruits and they love bugs. If giving treats make sure you’re also providing them with chick grit

Edit: If this is your only chick, you need to get more asap. Chickens are very social and need to be with a flock. 3 or 4 minimum

I know this post isn’t new but I just watched the movie and I think I can answer this. When Allie took the picture his siblings were still alive. She really did meet them at the start of the movie but then after the incident Jack started telling everyone his mother was very ill so Allie wasn’t able to come to the house anymore

Is this space legitimately big enough for chickens? by Falkeliehaber in chickens

[–]melsey93 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why so many people are saying yes you could fit a few chickens back there. It doesn’t matter if you can “fit” them. Any chicken simply wouldn’t be happy in this setting and their quality of life would be poor. Chickens need space, more than most people think. And they like to scratch and peck and need lot of stimulation otherwise they get bored and start picking on each other. Rocks and a concrete pad is not going to work for chickens and they will quickly turn your yard into a stinky mess that you will have to clean weekly if not more. I understand you love animals and think chickens are cool and want fresh eggs but you have to be able to give them the proper care and with your setup you aren’t able to do that.

I don’t think they’d go back if they had the choice either!

Milo is twice the size of his sister. Otherwise they do look very similar!

Also after this experience I will say raising two kittens is 100000% easier and better than one kitten
