Hi All,
I have a brooder heat plate sized for 30 chicks, for my 16x 2 week old chicks. For now they're inside a large plastic tote in my house and doing well. I'd like to move them to a much larger wood box brooder in my garage but I'm concerned about temperature.
This week's lows are in the low 30s F. Is that too cold for 2 week old chicks + a brooder plate? If so, what age can I move them out with lows in the 30s?
Thank you in advance!
