In the Brooder
Hey BYC!
I am working on setting up my brooder. My button quail eggs are on day 10, so i thought i'd better get started on the brooder.
Plasic tote is about 36 inches long. I used a 50 watt ceramic heat emitter. There is a full spectrum light above that's on a 14 hour timer. So they will have dark to sleep.
Hot end is reading 95 degrees and cold end is 79 degrees. I used shelf liner for the bottom. Should i use pine shavings under the shelf liner?
Should i change/add anything?
Advice is very welcomed!
