Hello everyone, I am a new chicken mum and have a question about how to get them to eat food and drink water. I have read posts on here where it was said to not worry if the chick isn’t eating as it has the yolk from it’s one egg. My little silky is three days old now and I showed him/her where the water is and the food. But he isn’t interested in it. I put his peek in it to show I also scratched the ground to make him more aware were the food is. My questions is will it go and search once it gets hungry or will it starve itself as he doesn’t know how to get food? I tried egg today and he wasn’t interested. Do I have to worry or will instinct kick in and he will know that he needs to look for the food?
