Importance of Water for Baby Chicks

I am Dr. T. K. Roy speaking on behalf of Expert Village. The feed is not what is most important but what is most important is water. So regardless we give them water. We can't expect any performance from the birds themselves meaning they will not grow at the rate that they should have grown they may not want the feed because there is no water because the feed is given in a dry form. An when there is less water or no water then barley processors will not function very well and they do not produce the way they should have produced. Water is very important, but not simple water. The water should be very clean, it should come from whatever be the source if it is a q well, if it is a dog well, if it is a National stream, river, whatever, it should be a very clean water. So always try to give clean water to the to the birds and cool water, it should not be cold. I should not say chilled water or cold water. It should be naturally cool water. Particularly in countries where the summer temperature is very high, they require more cool water and they prefer to take the cool water. It is very, very important to maintain normal body function for maintenance of productivity and for maintenance of other cleanliness and other things. That is something you must keep in mind. Thank you very much.
