Show me your brooders

[KimTatum03]

Can you show me your quail/chicken/duck brooders? What do you wish you added, what are you happy that you didn’t?

Ladies and gentlemen,
Show me your brooders for quail/ducks/chickens. What did you include, what did you wish you would have included or left out?

I use a 55 gallon Rubbermaid tub and a Brinsea brooder plate.

I like this. Do you use it for only quail? What do you like the bottom with?

 

[casportpony]

I use it for ducklings, chicken chicks, peachicks, and poults. I use cheap towels to line the bottom.

I only raise quail, but I use a heat lamp with a ceramic reptile bulb. I've converted a couple of plastic bins into brooders.

Here's one I've used. It is a small animal cage with a diy MHP. Worked well!

But here's my FAVE brooder:
