CHICKENS & MILK

RobfromDeal · « **on:** May 26, 2007, 10:43 »

Please can someone advise whether i can mix layers feed with a little milk. My chocks dont seem to eat the feed but they seem to do when mixed with a little milk.
Also is it ok to feed chocks with some crushed crackers and wheetflakes.

in a word no to all milk can ferment in the body and there is no minerals vitamins or much else that is good for chicks in crackers also the salt in crackers bad for chicks. 99 pence for 5 kilo of chick crumbs why crackers?.
