They are 4 weeks 4 days it's going Good..but about 5 chickens they weigh 1.5kg..I gues I have to separate them from the big ones so that get enough feed also..because they are being dominated by them. Thats poultry for you.But I'm happy with this batch💚

ADVANTANGES OF KEEPING CHICKEN FLOOR DRY OR DRY WOOD SHAVING

💚1. Better moisture control*
Dry shavings absorb droppings and spilled water well, keeping the coop drier. Wet bedding = stink, bacteria, and foot problems for chickens.
💚2. Less odor and ammonia buildup*
Dry bedding limits the breakdown of uric acid into ammonia, so the coop smells less and the air is healthier for both you and the birds.
💚3. More comfortable for chickens*
Dry, fluffy shavings give them a soft surface to walk, scratch, and nest on. Wet/moldy shavings can cause foot infections like bumblefoot.
💚4. Easier cleaning*
Dry shavings clump less and are easier to scoop out. You can do spot cleaning daily and full changes less often.
💚5. Lower risk of disease*
Moist bedding breeds bacteria, mold, and parasites. Keeping it dry cuts down on that risk.
💚6.Good ventilation
Wet wood shaving shows poor ventilation in your chicken house. Therefore make sure u have a good ventilation to avoid ammonia buildup up.

Broiler chicks .CLEAN WATER DECREASES MORTALITY

💚Give them stress pack or glucose water for 3days from Day 1. Keep glucose water for 12 hours and less.even f the glucose water is not finished you must change it.
💚After 3 days given them clean water..and change water and give clean water at least 2 times a day.
💚Make sure your drinkers are not under the light because they hate hot water and they won't drink it
💚Once they are 1 week old raise the drinkers ..place them on top of a brick or whatever is suitable and available but make sure they reach the drinkers well.

1 day old broilers. This is called Brooding stage
💚When you receive your chicks u must prepare the room before arrival.
💚1.Need infrared light to keep the room warm and close all windows ,with temperature of 30 to 32 degrees in the first week.
💚2.Place wood shaving on the floor then put papers on top to prevent small chicks from eating it.
💚3.Place water or drinkers with Stress Pack (yellow fluid inside drinkers).
💚4.Stress Pack calmes down the chicks and decreases stress from them.
💚5.Then u can put your starter feed after drinking the glucose water.
