Got tired of my old brooder taking up too much space since it was like 3'6"x8' and 3' tall so decided to make a double stacked one. It is 6'6" tall to the top from the floor and has 2 compartments that are 2'Wx4'Lx2'H . I wire in a wafer thermostat to control the temp inside and use a ceramic light socket to install a 250 watt bulb which is going to be replaced by an infrared ceramic heat emitter as soon as they arrive. I had to insulate it with 1 inch blue board to keep the heat stable at night since temps still are down in the teens but it is working perfect now.
