Judy, Who is funning you? Chicks pooh great on their own. Just let one get out of the brooder and see how much they can pooh--- everywhere. I give them acidophilus or yogurt in their feed to jump start their good crop bacteria, and at two weeks give them a little bit of very small grit, (I use parakeet) to help their gizzard get off to a good start. Cathryn
Someone just told me that for a few days after hatching from an
incubator you must wipe each chick's behind in order to stimulate it to poo.
I know this is normal for mammals, is this true for birds as well?
Thank you,
