Raising poultry

Raising robust poultry starts with careful attention during the first three weeks of a chick’s life. Proper temperature control is vital—beginning at 95°F (35°C) and reduced weekly—ideally managed in an indoor setup for accuracy and safety. Probiotics are equally important for incubator-hatched chicks, replacing the natural bacteria transfer from the mother. Without them, chicks risk digestive problems, weak immunity, and greater disease vulnerability. Hydration management further supports healthy growth.
