Was curious about how often do you all change the pads in your brooder’s? This will be the first time I use these in my brooder. I will use the pads with a small layer of pine shavings on top of the pad. The brooder is 3 foot deep and 4 foot wide, and 3 foot tall. I will have 10 chicks 9 females and 1 male.
Thank you for your comments.
Sincerely,
Mark

I don't use puppy pads. I use paper towels for the first few days and I change them out no less then 3 times a day.
Usually more than just 3.

I switch to using peat moss in my brooder real fast...as soon as I know everyone is eating and pooping just fine.
