ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

BASIC GUIDE TO POULTRY CARE

• A brooder with around 18” wall height should be set up and can contain them for several weeks.

• The temperature should read 95˚F under the light for the first two weeks. You can decrease that temperature by 5 degrees each week until you reach 65 degrees. At this point, they may not need an additional heat source depending on the weather. *Turkeys, Guineas, and Pheasants start at 100˚F

• Select a nutritionally balanced feed for the type of chicks you have purchased and supply them with water and feed all of the time.

• Clean and disinfect your feeders and waterers weekly to reduce disease risk.

BROODER EQUIPMENT

l Heat Lamp & bulb

l Feeder

l Waterer

l Pine Shavings

l Starter Feed (per poultry type)

l Thermometer – Recommended!

l 1/2 square foot per chick (7-8’ across for 100 chicks)

BEHAVIORS TO WATCH FOR• Temperature Behaviors TOO COLD: Chicks are huddled and crowding together under the light. TOO WARM: Chicks are spread out and far from the heat source. PERFECT!: Chicks “donut” around the heat source and are spaced out comfortably.

• Pasty Hind Ends This can indicate that they are too warm and/or do not have enough space. Be sure to remove the blockage gently with warm water and a wash cloth.

• Pecking This can also indicate that the chicks do not have enough space and/or are too warm. Double check your thermometer and raise the heat lamp to decrease brooder temperature if needed. A red bulb can dim the brooder and help reduce pecking as well.

• Lethargy If the chicks had a hard trip while being shipped and seem lethargic or weak upon arrival, put a spoonful of sugar in one quart of water and dip their beaks in it. Switch back to regular water after 24hrs. Townline also offers vitamins and electrolyte packs that can be ordered and shipped with your chicks.

CHICK TIPS

• Upon arrival, dip their beaks into their water source. This teaches them where to find their water and encourages them to hydrate quicker after shipping. Make sure they have continuous, fresh water available!

• Use proper bedding! Do not use sawdust or news paper which can harm your chicks! Pine shavings are preferred. Be sure to add additional bedding as needed and replace altogether once completely soiled.

• Inspect your chicks upon arrival and monitor closely for the first 24 hours for signs of shipping stress.

• Enjoy your peeps! We hope you find raising poultry as fun and rewarding as we do!

www.cdc.gov/healthypets/pets/farm-animals/backyardpoultry.html

WHAT IS IT? Salmonella bacteria can often be carried in the intestinal tract of most poultry species. The bacteria do not always cause illness in birds, but can cause serious illness in people.

WHERE DOES IT COME FROM? Salmonella infections can happen as a result of contact with animals or contaminated food. Chicks, ducklings, and other poultry carry the bacteria in their droppings and on their bodies, even if they appear to be healthy and clean.

WHAT IS THE HATCHERY DOING ABOUT IT? By actively participating in the NPIP Salmonella Monitoring program and working closely with a hired Salmonella expert, Townline was able to develop sound methods and practices that are applied at each level of farm operation, effectively reducing the risk of Salmonella infection and equipping our customers to stay healthy.

Keep yourself and your family safe by joining in our ef forts and following these simple, safe-handling practices!

Always wash your hands

thoroughly with soap
