Im the proud new owner of 3 Buff Orpingtons, about 10 days old. Theyve been in the house for 4 days now (very large cardboard box, heat lamp in one corner). My feed store, where I purchased the chicks, just handed me a 10lb bag of "chicken feed" and told me that was all they needed. It appears to be grit, although how coarse it is in comparison to other grit, Im not sure. The small pieces are sandy, the largest are maybe the size of a sunflower seed (no shell). Is this really all they need?
Also, we play with them several times a day, but they still peep bloody murder when picked up. Any way to get some love?
