Here is my pallet brooder

[jbly2014]

I set up this brooder in or garage for my chicks. I got almost everything free!

I used 6 pallets. 2 on each side and 1 on each end. I cut cardboard boxes and ziptied them on the inside to hold the heat in. I also put cardboard on the bottom to insulate them from the concrete floor. Here are a few pics.

Ok I have a lot of pics but I'm having trouble posting them. Not sure if it's my phone or the site?

Very nice! Great job!

Thank you. I can also add more as they grow and when they move to their pen I can just take it apart for next year!

Very cool, you are clever--I might start looking for pallets!

Thank you! It was my brother in law's idea. He gave me the pallets too.
