FAQ (frequently asked questions)
What are day-old chicks?
Day-old chicks refer to newly hatched chicks that are typically sold within 24 hours of hatching. They are the foundation of poultry farming operations and are raised to become either broiler chickens for meat production or layer hens for egg production.
What is the difference between broiler, layer, and pullet chicks?
- Broiler chicks: These chicks are specifically bred for meat production. They grow rapidly and are ready for slaughter within 6-8 weeks.
- Layer chicks: These chicks are bred to become egg-laying hens. They are selected for their ability to lay a high number of eggs over an extended period.
- Pullet chicks: Pullet chicks are young female chickens that have not yet reached maturity. They are typically raised to the point of lay and then transferred to egg-laying facilities.
How are day-old chicks transported?
Day-old chicks are carefully transported in specialized crates or boxes designed to maintain optimal temperature and humidity levels during transit. They are usually shipped via air or ground transportation to ensure they reach their destination quickly and safely.
