Ideal Feeding for Chicks' Development

When we think of the basic necessities of newly hatched chicks, it is obvious that feeding them will be a delicate task. They have tiny openings so the chicks do not get stuck while trying to get in or pour out too much food. Other measurements like the size and height of feeders are also positioned in a way that enables chicks to access them. Some of the feeders are designed in a way that makes refilling them easy for caregivers who aim to maintain a clean feeding environment for the weak chicks. These feeders also help in setting a proper growth strategy by adjusting the food sources and enabling the chicks to develop optimally and eventually mature into healthy adult chickens.

Feeders for chicks are specially designed to meet the needs of young chickens. Like adult chickens, chicks are also vulnerable but require a different type of feeder. These feeders should have a shallow design to prevent chicks from drowning or getting stuck. They should also be easy for chicks to access, having small openings that dispense the ideal amount of feed. Feeders for chicks can be made of plastic or other lightweight materials. Some feeders for chicks are hung to help keep the feed clean and reduce waste. Correct feeders for chicks helps their healthy growth and development.

common problem

Why do chicks need special feeders?

Chicks do not need feeders with a larger volume capacity as they have different feeding habits than adult hens. Chicks have small and soft beaks that require more protection which means that specialized feeders designed for chicks have smaller openings to restrict wastage. Specialized feeders for chicks are more often than not them to help with restricted height. They allow issuing a specific quantity of feed to be provided which will help with better nutrition and growth in their early stages.
Feeders designed for chicks' use should be made from lightweight, secure, and easy to clean materials. Plastic is very lightweight and inexpensive, which makes it easy to mold into the appropriate shape of a chick feeder. A better option would be stainless steel. It is still durable plastic, but it also resistant to rust and corrosion, making it sanitary. Treated wood can be used but need to keep it dry to rot. Avoid shrubs or woods which can splinter. Sharp fragments from the edges can be harmful to the chicks.
