I've heard of conflicting reports about what to put in baby chick water once they come out of the box--what do you recommend?
I've heard a few teaspoons of sugar, electrolytes (bought a package of that at Tractor Supply), and Apple Cider Vimegar to reduce the occurrence of pasty butt.
What should I add to the water? And is room temp water ok or does it need to be colder/warmer.
Got the text that chicks shipped yesterday so I did a dry run of the brooder--looks great!!
