    Brooder Plate

    I will try to move it out some on the other 2 sides. I didn’t realize it was so big. They are in a big Rubbermaid container, 42” long.

    Brooder Plate

    Thanks ladies! Shew I didn’t think I’d be this worried about these babies! It is towards one end of the brooder, but up against one end and one side of it. I’ll lower the back and leave the front higher. Thank you again!

    Brooder Plate

    Thanks! It cooled down and I turned it back on at setting “I”. Now it’s up to 97* under there. They are all sleeping happily under it. Should I be concerned with the higher temp?

    Heat Lamp Help!

    I am borrowing a Producer’s Pride Chicken Coop Hester & Brooder from a friend. I’ve got the chicks under it now and they’re loving it. My question is that it’s on the tallest setting... do I use this until the chicks are fully feathered? I feel as they get bigger they will be touching the bottom...

    Heat Lamp Help!

    Thank you! I moved them into our laundry room (I think the concrete floor was cooling it down). They are now in there with the 60w & space heater. It’s heating back up. All but 1 are sleeping (somewhat together). So I guess they are doing ok!

    Heat Lamp Help!

    We just got 6 baby chicks today. We bought the 250w heat lamp from the store. This is too hot for the chicks. I have switched it out with a 60w regular bulb that we had. However the temp in the brooder is at 90* now. They are in our garage (eastern NC area) with a space heater on. I’m worried...
