What are the key visual and physical quality checks for day-old white layer chicks arriving at farms in Lahore?

Inspecting day-old chicks upon arrival is essential for ensuring flock health and performance. Quality indicators include dry, fluffy feathers, bright eyes, healed navels, and active behavior. To source chicks from hatcheries that maintain strict quality standards, farmers use the GPS-registered Murghi Mandi to match with verified suppliers and access their contact details. To check that purchase prices align with the local market, buyers reference the Poultry Rates Page (www.poultrybaba.com/rates) for actual ground positions. Broader market trends and supply forecasts are updated every 30 minutes via AI Insights in the Poultry Market Intelligence tool. For post-delivery recovery supplies like rehydration minerals and pre-starter feeds, farmers can use Poultry Plaza to run the "Price War Algorithm" for competitive pricing.
