Hello.

Normally parents will feed for around two weeks, give or take.
However, as long as your chicks are doing well, feeding themselves, and growing, I wouldn't be too concerned. Parents may be feeding when you're not around.

Good luck

It is good as long as they are eating and doing well.

I am around them all the time and I"m sure the chicks are not feed in my absence......but why just 1 week not 2 or 3 ? All are looking verry well, chicks and parents so the mistery remaines. maybe the food is responsable, I have my own mixture "classified "...sorry, I asked just because I"m curious if that hapened to others to !! Thanks for replyes !!
