Ensuring proper water supply and quality for 1-day-old chicks is critical for reducing mortality, preventing dehydration, and setting a foundation for growth. In the first 24 hours, chicks are often stressed and thirsty from transportation, requiring immediate access to clean, lukewarm water.

Ensuring proper water supply and quality for 1-day-old chicks is critical, as they drink twice as much as they eat and are highly susceptible to dehydration and infections. For day-old chicks, the priority is immediate access to clean, lukewarm water (25–30°C) to prevent cold shock and ensure they begin drinking.

To ensure proper water supply for 1-day-old chicks, provide fresh, clean water in shallow, accessible containers at a comfortable temperature. Regularly check and refill to maintain quality and encourage drinking.
