Universal brooder- opinions? **link fixed**

[LarissaCluck]

Hi everyone!

I am going to pick up a used universal brooder like this one today. http://www.randallburkey.com/Universal-Box-Type-Brooder-w_-2-Bulbs/productinfo/0534/

I am getting it for 100, so seems like a good deal. I was just curious if anyone had one and what their opinions were. Any pointers?

THanks!

Cool!

I am just so sick of chicks in plastic bins and having to change the water a bazillion times a day. plus it will fit my 25+chick order I have coming. An 100 dollars seems like a killer deal for one.

I hope it fits in the back of my CRV.... Let's see 3 ft x 3.5 feet by 1 foot....I think it will?

Is the half inch wire on the bottom too small for banties????
