WARNING: Reports of high chick mortality this rearing season🐣
We have been hearing that some 2026 chick deliveries have had a high mortality rate, with higher risk of yolk sac infection, aspergillosis, coccidiosis and rotavirus.
We recommend using Quill Boost Tonic continually right from when chicks arrive to lower the pH of their drinking water, helping to improve immunity and avoid the use of antibiotics later down the line.
It's also important after transport that chicks rehydrate and replace the lost B vitamins they urgently need. Use Quill Lyte Plus for the first 48 hours after arrival and following change of environment, bitting or periods of stress.
