can distinguish between healthy and weak chicks by looking, touching, and listening.
Look: The color and body shape of chicks conform to the characteristics of this breed. The fluff is clean, dry, active and sensitive, and the weight meets the standards of this breed. The chick's shell is heavy, clean and tidy, and shiny. The abdomen is flat and soft; the umbilicus has no bleeding marks, is well healed, is tight and dry, and is covered with fluff; the chicks are lively and active, with large eyes, strong feet, no organ defects, no large belly, black belly button and anal paste.
The temperature and humidity of the chicken house are appropriate. Pour the chicks into the chicken coop, which can quickly and naturally disperse. After people enter, they will follow and run. This kind of flock is relatively healthy. Weak chicks: lack of energy, closed eyes, unstable standing, weak feet, cold, shrunken into a ball, unresponsive; disheveled villi, dull villi and some lack of villi; enlarged abdomen, blood stains, poor healing, Surrounding mucus, lint-free and exposed.
Touch: holds the chicken, it has a strong break free, kicking and struggling hard, the cry is very clear. With meat in your hands, these chicks are generally healthier and stronger. Breeders in some areas said that if the chicks are good or not, they know that they are obtained just like this. Some chicks are covered with fur and bones, thin shells, and feel light in the hand, soft and weak. Such chicks are usually not good.
Listen: sounds loud and crisp; people do not need to enter the chicken coop, they can hear the crisp sound of the chicken coop far away from the brooding room. The sound is louder, so chicks are generally healthier. Weak chicks cry faintly, sluggish or scream, their wings are drooping, and are lethargic. Such chicks are usually relatively weak.
