What Happens When Brooding Is Not Done Properly? π₯π«
If chicks donβt get the right heat, hygiene, or care in their first 2 weeks:
β They get cold and weak
β Risk of infections like CRD & diarrhea increases
β Poor feed intake and slow growth
β Higher mortality (more losses)
β Stunted birds that wonβt reach market weight
The truth is brooding isnβt just about putting chicks in a box, and itβs definitely not guesswork.
Itβs the foundation of your entire poultry success.
π How your chicks turn out at the end of your cycle starts with how well you brooded them.
At Zahra Farms, we brood with care, herbs, and experience giving our birds the best start, naturally. πΏ
