A brooder lamp is a heat lamp. The red bulbs are best. You will need a thermometer under the light source to measure the correct temperature for chicks. It should be between 95-99 degrees for the first week in the warmest area, directly under the lamp. There should also be cooler spots in the brooder so your chicks can escape the heat if they become too hot.

I know you'd like to remove this piece of shell for your chick, but right now you should make sure your chick is warm and dry.

It's up to you, you can use your judgement, but until you can get a heat source I would think it would be best if you could keep it dry.

Looks like that is a hygrometer (measures humidity) and a thermometer (measures temperature.) So it's a good choice!

Yes, the shell part that is still on the chick will probably be fine until sometime tomorrow.

my dad has a fire place in living room

I check huimdifer thermometer said 37 c

thats too much?

also the litle chick was in a open box in the brooder, it jumped out and is with the other in the brooder

maybe I have to seperate if they start pecking at it

seems to have energy, or maybe its too hot
