We have raised a 'significant' number of chickens over the past three years and after a lot of disappointment with the brooder model we spent the last two years perfecting our 'First Day on Grass' approach to raising baby chicks. With the proper shelter and precautions we feel this approach improves survival rates, as well as develops the chicks foraging instincts. We have some additional information on primarily the shelters we use for this on our web site. Lynn @ Melo Farms
