Ten tips regarding keeping newborn chicks in the first few days.
(Turkey chicks are more sensitive than other chickens and goose chicks are less sensitive)
1- To prevent the chicks from spreading and away from the artificial mother device, be sure to use the chick guard.
2- The number of drinking troughs and feeders is sufficient and place them one in the middle.
3- Make an arrangement so that small lighting lamps completely illuminate the feeding and watering area.
4- Pour small pieces of shiny objects, such as red, yellow, and green rosary beads, on the chickens’ feed to attract their attention to the feed (the size of these pieces should be so large that the chickens cannot swallow them. removed from the feeder after one or two days)
5- On the first day, pour some chicken manure outside and around the feeder.
6- If you see a chick standing in a fixed place and chirping, direct it under the artificial mother device and towards the waterer and feeder.
7- If you see a chicken standing in a fixed place and chirping with its eyes closed, make sure to force it to drink water. Then mark the chicken’s back with a magic pen (preferably blue) and monitor and help it repeatedly until it returns to normal.
8- If the chickens do not have enough heat, they will move towards each other, they will run over each other and stop feeding. Pay special attention to the proper heat of the chickens.
9- If the chicks tend to gather under the mother’s system and in the middle of it, this action indicates cold. When they are away from the center of the device and are on the outer edge. It indicates excessive heat. When the chickens are evenly scattered under and around the device, it indicates a suitable environment and pleasant heat.
10- In the first days, large pieces of cardboard or clean paper are placed on the bed near the mother’s device, and some chicken manure is poured on them to accustom them. For every 100 pieces of chicken, two one-meter feeding troughs are meant to be placed one in the middle and evenly. At the entrance of the breeding hall, a suitable container containing an antiseptic solution (disinfection) should be placed in order to prevent pathogens from entering.
During the first week, the temperature of the peripheral part of the artificial mother device should be limited to 32 to 33 degrees and the temperature of the surrounding environment should be controlled at 20 degrees several times a day, especially during the pregnancy week.
