I am getting my "mail order chicks" today and am curious about where to put them! I have turned a large cardboard box into a brooding area! I'm on the fence as to where they should go. Would my detached garage be too HOT for them? Or should I put them down in my basement with a heat lamp?! My basement is finished (and has a room off limits to my dogs and cats) but stays super cool. I don't want to littles to be overheated but think the garage would be the best place to "acclimate" to the hot summer. They are day old chicks. Not pullets. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
