So I had a question about feeding canned corn to chicks and ducklings that are young.
Is there any problem with this? And what's the youngest you could do it and not have problems?
(To clarify I'm talking about the stuff that's canned with heat, so they are soft bits in the can, and already separated from the cobs.)
My intention is that this is great for training them to trust me by feeding them it as a treat out of my hand. (But I want to make sure this won't be an issue. I haven't had any trouble using really soft cooked peas doing this, but after awhile I ended up using all my canned peas.
I'm still using the normal chick starter for their main food also. This would only be for like mid day treats, and trust training.
Thanks for any insights.
