Pre-Placement Preparation (7–10 days before chick arrival)
- Downtime and cleaning: Remove all birds and organic matter. Dry-clean floors and equipment; wash with detergent; apply approved disinfectants at correct dilutions; allow adequate drying time.
- Litter management: Remove caked litter. In cold or wet seasons, consider fresh litter (e.g., wood shavings, rice hulls) at 5–10 cm depth; in drier seasons, some reuse practices incorporate windrowing and reconditioning, following veterinary guidance.
- Equipment service: Inspect brooders, heaters, fans, inlets, curtains, lights, feeders, and drinkers. Replace worn parts. Check gas lines and safety cut-offs.
- Biosecurity perimeter: Repair fencing, footbaths, and entry signage; establish clean/dirty lines and visitor logs.
- Preheating: Warm the house 24–48 hours before placement to achieve proper floor temperature (often 30–32°C measured at litter level for chicks). Preheat water lines to avoid cold shock.
- Chick reception: Verify chick quality—navel healing, uniform size, responsive behavior. Record delivery conditions and box counts.
- Brooding temperature and humidity: Start around 32–34°C air temperature (or follow strain-specific guidelines) with a focus on floor temperature and chick behavior. Gradually reduce temperature by 2–3°C per week. Relative humidity of 50–70% supports respiratory health and reduces dehydration.
- Lighting: Provide bright, uniform light in the first days to stimulate feed and water intake; later, implement a dark period to support leg and metabolic health.
- Feed and water access: Place starter feed on trays and ensure line feeders are filled. Provide abundant drinker space; adjust nipples/drinkers to chick height.
- Early-life vaccinations: Depending on regional disease risk, programs may include vaccinations for Newcastle disease and infectious bursal disease, among others.
- Observation: Chick distribution is the best thermometer—huddling under heat indicates cold; moving to wall edges suggests heat stress; clustering at drinkers suggests thirst; uniform spreading indicates comfort.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
