Raina Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi all, I can't seem to get hold of any marbles at the moment But i did buy a spongebob fish tank a while ago but ended up melting it (left it next to a radiator over-night) Well it came with some small 0range & White stones/pebbles (can get pics of size if needed) Could i use those if i can't get hold of any marbles? I don't think Serama chicks could swallow them as i've read that they need chick crumbs crushing up If not, I'll pop over our local shop in a bit and ask if they sell any lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 They should do if they're not too small Have a look in the entertainer for some marbles, or on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Assuming you want marbles for their water dish how about using decorative glass beads? I used those although quickly went out and bought a drinker suitable for chicks like this one http://www.flytesofancy.co.uk/chickenhouses/Economy_Drinkers___Feeders.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teri Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 i also managed to find a chick feeder in my local farm supply shop. you could use the lid off a jar of coffee as this is quite shallow although you'd have to fill it regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raina Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 Thanks, The shop over the road doesn't sell any I do have a chick drinker (smallest i could find) but apparently (my cousin told me) it would be a little too big for Seramas Oh and Teri, I used to live in Cannock, have loads of family there (and loads in Germany lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
