So our chicks outgrew our little brooder, so we discussed a little larger “brooder” so we sent our chicks camping. 😁 ⛺
“Chick specific contraptions” $stupid $cost
“3 person tent” about $30 +\-
****Note this is safely deployed in our garage****
Note: wood chips + chickens= needed air compressor to unclog the screen due to dust. Every other day or so at about 1 month.
We attached a heat lamp from the center light hanger and ran the power cord up the side of the tent pole and secured with zip ties/bread ties (whatever works) We’re also hi-tech rednecks so the “Chick Cam security camera was a fun lazy person/security improvement” Live to see our peeps! 🤭😀
### It’s NOT ©️ just some ingenuity ###
Use at your own risk.

How old are they and what is the weather like where you are? They look fairly feathered out which is when mine get the boot from the garage.

About 2 months. Located in Kansas where the weather needs medications. 70 one day, 14 at night. 🙄
We have a supplemental heater due to the garage holding in cold air.
