Preparation & Feeding Instructions
For the safety and health of your chicks, strict hygiene and correct temperature control are vital during feeding.
Step-by-Step Guide:
Mix: Add hot water (approximately 60°C) to the formula powder at a ratio of about 1:3 (1 part formula to 3 parts water).
Blend: Mix thoroughly until it forms a smooth, fine paste without any dry lumps.
Cool & Test: Allow the mixture to cool to a lukewarm, safe feeding temperature of 40°C. Always test a drop on your wrist to ensure it isn't too hot before feeding!
Feed: Administer carefully using a specialized feeding syringe or a bent spoon.
Schedule: Feed the next meal after the crop has emptied, typically every 3 to 4 hours depending on the age of the chick.
Important Note: Do not feed the formula if it has become too cold. Always prepare fresh batches for every single feed and strictly discard any leftover food after each meal to prevent harmful bacterial growth.
