This is a community discussion where a non-farmer asks for advice on feeding stray chicks found in their compound. The thread features practical suggestions on using crushed grains, rice, or garri as starter feed, along with a later recommendation to buy commercial starter feed. The conversation clarifies that the poster is not a poultry farmer but is acting out of kindness.

“Have you asked your neighbours if any of them owns the chickens?”
“Aiit then... I think u can feed them broken grains.... Like u have to pound it till almost dust”
“Crushed maize grains would do. Later you can buy chicken feed.”
“Go to any poultry store and buy one mudu or one painter of starter. It won't cost you any serious money and it will last for a long time.”
