Stoves in America - most common is electricity, second is gas stoves, then there are wood-burning stoves. Often folks convert their fireplace to gas fireplace or wood-burning stove fireplace instead of an open hearth.

Do you have a feather duster? I know some folks use those to let the chicks huddle under it, like a momma chicken. It would be a good addition to a huddle box or hot water bottle, to keep the heat around the chicks.

4 day old chicks need about 90F temperature available.

no feather duster, but I do have hay and a broom which I think is kind of similar.

Are stoves in America work with electricity?

Not all of them. Gas is popular too

She ate the yellow chick. My mother was there at the time and grabbed her, but only after she killed it and tortured the rest of them…
