Chicks of various ages... What temperature to keep them?

[Malibu99]

We have 7 chicks now, 2 of them are two weeks old, 4 of them are one week old, and 1 is one day old. I'm curious as to what temperature to keep them as I don't want the older ones to be too hot, nor the younger ones too cold. It's about 95 degrees at the moment. Thanks in advance.

If your brooder box has ample room, your older chicks will go to cooler areas of the brooder and your young ones will stay with the heat. If it were me, I'd keep the brooder at between 90-95 for a week, and then each week thereafter drop the temp 5 degrees..good luck!

Perfect, thanks
