BABY CHICKS SHOULD, NOT
BE FED .FIRST 48 HOURS
"Do not feed the baby chicks until
they are48 hours old," says Kate M.
Wells, poultry specialist, Division of
Extension, University of Tennessee.
; Mrs. Wells suggests that their first
food be sour milk or buttermilk. This
is a food, a disinfectant and a body
regulator the lactic acid keel ing the
intestines free from the bacterial
growth that causes most diarrhoea.
See that the chicks have fresh but
termilk each day -all they want and
do not give any water for five or six
days. .
" "See that the chicks have coarse
sand or fine gravel where they can
get what they need in their gizzards
to start grinding- the food they are
to be given very soon. When three
days old 1 they may be given solid
food. Hard boiled eggs, ground or
mashed and mixed with an equal
quantity of ground wheat bread, bis
cuit, oatmeal is excellent for their
first solid feed. Feed this four or five
times a day -what the chickens will
clean up in ten or fifteen minutes.
Take away what is left and leave
them to digest what they have eat
en." " In addition to the above, on the
fourth or fifth, day add a little fine
chick feed, scattered in litter, so
they will begin to exercise. A dry
mash made . up of equal parts by
weight of bran, aborts, cornmeal and
ground oats may also be put before
them at this time. To this mixture
add 10 percent of its weight of dried
buttermilk or fine beef scrap. By
the end of the first week the egg and
bread feed may be dropped, and the
mash feed given above with a good
scratch feed that will make the grow
ing ration for the chicks from now
on. Equal parts of cracked corn and
wheat and piuhead oats or rolled oats
will make a good scratch feed. Or,
ground bone may be added to the
mash a pound- to .one' hundred
pounds of mash. "
