It rained last night and the guilt is overwhelming, as is also the concern for good chick health. Right now 9 chicks are starting to crowd a 2x2 wire cage that is in my run, and its all muddy, wet, yucky, etc etc. Its got a polywood "roof" but the ground is soaked, and so is the cardboard box they call a home! Its got heat lamps but I am going to whip up a quick a-frame brooder for them, with spare parts. for a 2'x 4' A-frame brooder, what height should it be at the (inside) peak?
Its a temporary setup until my new run is complete. The new a-frame is actually going to sit inside a small 6'x6' area chain link run for extra security and because it happens to have access to electricity.
