Look for water on the floor around the base of the toilet if you can't pinpoint any other reason for the low water level. You may have to remove the toilet to get a good look at the subfloor, especially if the floor is tiled. The presence of water probably means there is a crack in the bowl.
1 Wheat grains are small enough that baby chicks can eat them when theyâre a week old or so. 2  Cracked wheat i s can be a good feed, though Iâve never seen cracked wheat that isnât too dusty and floury to be a good scratch feed.3  I donât like it when my feed blows away on the wind before it even reaches the ground! Normally, in the U.S., whole corn is the cheapest grain you can buy, and chickens like it. 2  Cracked corn gets moldy fairly quickly, so use it or lose it. 3  Coarsely cracked corn is better than finely cracked corn, even for baby chicks. 4  Whole wheat is a wonderful scratch feed.
Once chickens reach the point where they start laying eggs (usually about 18 â 20 weeks of age) you can start them on a layer food. We feed our chickens layer pellets or crumble rather than a scratch mix as we find there is less waste with layer pellets. Chickens should always have access to layer pellets. Kitchen scraps can also be fed to your chickens at this age. They will look forward to getting kitchen scraps and usually eat these pretty quickly. Shell grit can also be a useful addition to your chicken feed to provide enough calcium for good shell development.
