class A chicks                                               Class C or reject chicks                    Important

navel are close and dry                                  wet with black spot          they will mostly die before 7 days
wt. broiler at least 38gms to 45                        37 gms below         but always depends on age of breeder 
layer atleast 33 grms                                      30 gms below         but always depends on age of breeder
alert and playful at day 1                                 sleepy at day 1      but check the your brooder pen
uniform in size                                               diff. in size due to diff. batches of chicks
