Any large brooder ideas ?

[swheat]

Thought I would post a pic of the brooder, well skeleton part. I decided to only do a double decker because of weight(just in case I need to move it around). The middle floor will have plastic tubs for dropping pans for easy clean up. I will enclose all of it except for the front, which will be covered with wire. This will be for some of my older chicks so I haven't decided if I will place light receptacles for heat, but I can always add those later if I need them.

What dimensions did you end up with, steve? Looks great. I've been pulling wire all day trying to get the new duck pens a little farther along. If its not raining, I should have a few pens ready to go by fridays end.

Here is the finished(not painted yet---not sure when I will get that done) The inside of each section is 3' X 8'. The sterlite storage boxes are a perfect fit.

Jared, Hurry up with those duck pens(you know they will be laying soon)...
