Updated: Okay chicken math got the best of me again. I figured out I have 13 roosters out of 30 so I need more hens. I made another brooder just like the bottom one,with a removable end so I can attach them with zip ties and moved the other chicks into the basement. I have 9 more chicks coming Friday.Here is a picture of my brooders
Large dog kennel with plastic wrapped around to prevent drafts and keeps pine shavings inside. I also put 1/2" chicken wire around to keep cat paws out.
This is where I keep the larger chicks in the basement until it warms up.This brooder is 5'x3' I took the tarp off the top and wrapped plastic 1/2 way up to prevent drafts and keep the pine shavings in. I put paneling on one end that can be easily removed so when I want to put all the chicks together I can attach it to my other brooder. This way I don't need a third larger brooder.
