I would like to know what I can feed baby chicks as my Bengalese girl died whilst laying her eggs. And although I tried to purchase another female to take over care of them I have ended up with 2 males.
There is a special food called Chick Crumbs for baby chicks.

Does a Bengalese lay every day or every other day?
By Teresa
Dear Teresa, Bengalese finch will lay one egg everyday probably in the early hours of morning. They will lay about 3-8 eggs in a clutch and they may also hatch them at the time of laying or after the full clutch is complete.
When I found an egg in a seed tray, it could only be the zebra finches, the Bengalese had eggs, but none had hatched. So I thought great, maybe they could hatch this one, thinking they were unable to hatch their own. After I put the egg in I looked again and there was a baby only a few days old. I feel I have caused more trouble than helped, do you think baby will be OK?
