Feeding Chicks: Water, Food, and Ration Guidelines
The article advises chick care including tray fed grains millet and bone, water in troughs to avoid wetting bodies, and little piles of millet in sand for exercise. It suggests feeding as much as they will eat and removing leftovers, with three meals daily and screenings between meals to improve digestion and reduce labor.
Brooder Chicks Need Exercise For Healthy Rearing
A great mistake is confining brooder chicks in a small area. Start in the brooder, then move to a small yard for a week, then provide a yard of fifty to sixty feet or allow free range. Scatter grain in litter or grass to encourage foraging and ensure daily outdoor time. Exercise is essential. food alone won’t raise a chick.
Growing Chicks Require Lime Rich Foods And Nitrogen
Poultry News advises growing chicks need lime rich foods rather than lime itself and higher nitrogen in rations. A daily mixture is two pounds wheat bran, one pound ground dried blood, two ounces bone meal, and four ounces linseed meal, mixed with minimal water. Feed this no more than every other day if chicks are thrifty, favoring whole wheat and cracked corn with millet reed between meals.
