Feeding Instructions:
- Formula Preparation: Combine formula and hot water (approx. 120°F) in a clean, sanitized container according to the chick's age. Use boiled or bottled water if tap water contains bacteria.
- Mix Thoroughly: Mix formula thoroughly and let it sit for one minute.
- Cool Mixture: Cool mixture to 105°F (or between 102° - 110°F). The mixture should have the consistency of thick creamy pudding. Stir vigorously if a smoother consistency is desired.
Special Preparation Notes:
- Do Not Reuse Mixed Formula: Discard and mix fresh at each feeding.
- Avoid Microwaving: Microwaving can create "hot spots" and increase the risk of crop burns. If necessary, microwave (on high) for no more than 5 seconds per 1/2 cup of mixed formula at a time. Stir thoroughly to avoid hot spots.
- Early Stage Feeding: For chicks hatch to 2 days old, formula should be made in small quantities and thoroughly stirred before feeding.
Storage Instructions:
- Seal Tightly: After opening, remove air from the package and reseal tightly.
