We just got a shipment of baby chicks in today. I set the brooder- 6' x 6' x 2' plywood box up on the back patio on Sunday. Put the bedding in Monday. Heat lamps went on Wednesday morning to check temp.
Today we put 56 baby chicks in there and every time I go out, I get bit by no seeums. Pretty significant swarm, it seems. I noticed it right away after putting them in there. If you live in the south- you know what they are. I'm thinking either:
Any thoughts?

- They came with the chicks.
- The chicks have called them for some reason.
Any thoughts?
