I have a rabbit hutch converted to a brooder for chicks. It's plenty warm outside for this. But I guess it's not secure enough. Lost 3 3wk old chicks last night. In the same cage(divided) was a 10wk old pullet. There were feathers from her in the wire, but small chicks no where to be found. Didn't see any signs of how the coon got them either.
It's a hutch from tractor supply, solid back, with 3 wire sides. Wire is 1x1 wire.
I want to raise chicks, as I am planning a breeding project, but want to be able to do so outside. Does anyone have any outside brooder cages? Can you show me pictures?
