Remember to weigh the chick prior to each feeding and document it on your record. Monitor the weight to make sure the chick is gaining and not losing weight. After the initial 2 feedings add a small amount of handfeeding formula to the pedialyte. The result should look like murky water. Thicken the formula as the chick grows.
Most manufacturers have a guide on the package.
One way to check to see if the formula is the right consistency is to check the chick's droppings. If the formula is too thick the dropping while be very hard with little urine. If the formula is too thin the droppings will be almost all liquid with no stool. Proper consistency will help the chick to grown and put on weight. It can also be one of the most rewarding experiences in life.
