Digestibility is particularly critical for young chicks, whose stomachs are small, immature, and highly sensitive to minerals and micro nutrients. Even with an excellent rearing environment and world-class husbandry techniques, ostriches' ability to thrive in the first three months is largely determined by their feed. Feeding Directions: Feed free-choice to newly hatched ostriches until 2-3 months of age or a height of two feet, whichever comes first. Numerous feeders should be made available so newly hatched, disoriented chicks easily find feed. Ensure clean water is available at all times in vessels with openings too narrow for a chick to fall in. Each chick should consume approximately 100lbs of feed in its first three months of life.
