Proper chick grading is essential for farms to achieve optimal performance and healthy flocks. During the chick processing stage, grading should focus on several key factors:
- Appearance and size
- Leg strength and alignment
- Feathering quality
- Behavioral indicators
- Proper navel sealing
- Absence of abnormalities
Ensuring each chick meets these criteria lays the foundation for improved productivity and healthier outcomes.
