Hello, I recently built a plywood brooder box and I’m wondering what would you all add to it? ❤️

We utilized 4 pallets I got for free from a store off of Facebook marketplace. You can check behind business as well near there trash cans or go inside and ask. We took all of the planks off and harmed out most of the nails...
My husband and I created a brooder box out of 4 pallets and wood laying around. We had to get the chicken wire, clasp, and hinges from store along with materials to make the roosting bar.

We keep the chicks in a spare bedroom...

I have four eggs set to hopefully hatch the first of the week and was faced with the fact that my primary brooder is being occupied by 5 3 week old chicks I purchased at Orscheln's 2 weeks ago.
