I'm prepping our first brooder for new chicks that arrive next week. I have a large Steralite container. I plan on putting hardware cloth in the lid (cat and toddler, a lid is mandatory). I've seen it done on almost the entire lid and only half the lid. I'm trying to decide what is best for our brooder, which will be housed on our enclosed porch.
What should I be looking for to make sure it isn't drafty but adequately ventilated? Can anyone advise?
Thanks!
