I am happy to let you know that the chicks are fine now. Today, this afternoon they fledged.
After I started giving the chicks extra calcium en vitamin D the one that could not use it’s legs properly started to get better very quickly.
(the vitamin powder I used to dust the insects contains enough vitamin B because it is made largely of brewers yeast so I don’t think that was the problem).
Besides mealworms and crickets and worms I also gave them small fish. This way I made their diet more varied and healthy I hope.
The chicks are well feathered and have long and strong legs. I am happy to send you a picture of my two birds I raised from birth. I think they are a male and a female.
Thank you again for you advice.
Best regards,
