"DON'TS" FOR CHICKEN RAISERS
Don't put too many chicks in on 2 brooder. Don't think a rnr-n' er w"! furnish more bodily heat. Don't forget to have a little more heat than is actually necessary. Don't forget that cold chicks will crowd and suffocate one another. Don't forget that chicks learn easily to crowd and will continue to do so once taught. Don't forget a little finer litter to scratch in will keep your chicks busy and help digest their good.
Don't forget charcoal, chick grit and
good pure water.
Don't forget a little pure castor oil on breadcrumbs will overcome constipation.
Dr Ethridge, of Chicago, once said
"To raise babies keep them warm, dry, full and quiet." To raise chicks I would modify the above a little and say, "Keep them warm, dry, moderately full and busy."
