Lewis Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Not sure if this has been posted about, but has anyone ever read the Rcom Manual. I think their products are excellent, and very well designed, but the care they say to give to the chicks is a bit iffy Its quite obvious that its been translated using a machine, or something, just becase of a few problems with words or grammar, but the worst thing is the info! Feed it on the chopped-up yolk of a boiled egg along with water in a dish.It is desirable to mix it with a little soil or sand. A bird has a gizzard and sand will promote the digestion. A chick likes chopped-up lettuce or cabbage. Feed a chick on the yolk of an egg for about two days, then on a mix of the yolk and feed for chicks or hulled millet soaked in water, and on appropriate feed or moistened grains of cooked rice about a week later. Will that give all nutrients and protein to a growing chick? If a chick peep-peeps loud, it needs a help. It falls into water and gets its feathers wet, feels cold, gets hungry or thirsty, feels lonely, or gets frightened. Only when you take good care of it, it never peep-peeps loud. All chicks will cheep, not just lonely or frightened ones! It says to use the box it came in as a brooder, and to use a 20W energy saving bulb to heat the chicks. About two weeks after a chick hatched, it has well-grown feathers and becomes resistant to the circumstance. Which I think they are saying they only need to be kept warm for 2 weeks.
