Good morning from California!
So I finished building a brooder box in which I am going to raise this year's flock of chicks. I bought the Ecoglow 20 and have it all set up. I'm confused, though, about whether I need to provide any other heat or light source? If I keep the brooder in the garage and the ambient temperature is say 58 degrees for example, is the Ecoglow all that i'm going to need? I was so OCD last with last year's chicks, checking the temperature all the time and trying to keep the temperature at a balmy 95 degrees. It just seems like quite a big swing from the super hot heat lamp to a unit that doesn't heat the air surrounding it. Any thoughts? I'd love to hear from you!
Thanks in advance,
Michelle in CA
