why did my baby chicks freak out over beet leaves on day one?

Watching my new chicks explore the garden for the first time was wild. They darted straight for the beet and radish bed, pecking curiously at the leaves. I always let my little ones roam in veggie patches early on—it helps them get used to new sights and sounds. Plus, they snack on bugs hiding in the soil, which keeps pests down without chemicals. I noticed they loved hiding under the big beet leaves. It’s their way of feeling safe while checking out the world. If you’re starting chicks, let them explore a bit. They’ll help your garden and get braver every day. Just keep an eye out so they don’t munch all your greens! #gardeningtips #backyardchickens #homesteadlife #Gardening
