1. In a clean container, mix feed with warm water (35-37 ° C) according to the ratio indicated in the table and appropriate for the chick's age. Use only boiled or bottled water - this will ensure the microbiological purity and safety of the prepared food.
2. Stir until a smooth, homogeneous consistency is obtained, let the mixture rest for 1-2 minutes. Stir again to prevent delamination.
Important: Do not use a microwave oven to cook or heat feed during feeding, as hot spots may appear in the mixture, which can burn the chick's goiter when feeding.
3. Check the temperature of the cooked food. Monitor the temperature of the feed during feeding (35-37 ° C).
4. Feed the chick until the crop is full and round. Do not overfeed to avoid regurgitation! Chicks need to be fed every 3-4 hours during the day, but only after the goiter is completely or almost completely empty.
5. Prepare a fresh portion of feed before each feeding!
The amount of mixture given in each feeding should be 10-12% of the chick's weight.
