Dine-A-Chook Brooders vs. Traditional Methods

With our brooders, you can easily maintain cleanliness and provide a secure space for your chicks to grow. The divider panel and adjustable drinker system are designed to enhance convenience and chick welfare.

How to Set Up Your Chick Brooder

• Position your brooder indoors where you can monitor your chicks closely during their vulnerable early days.

• Place the brooder cage in a corner of the area with food and water available in another corner. Ensure the brooder size is appropriate for the number and size of your chicks, expanding it as they grow.

• Keep your chicks warm and comfortable with our brooder heat plates or other heating options. Adjust settings based on the chicks' behavior to ensure optimal conditions.

• Regularly check and clean the chick pen using the removable trays and divider system to maintain a hygienic environment.

Products To Complete The Setup

• Chick Brooder Heat Plate: Provides natural warmth, reducing the risk of overheating and fire compared to traditional heat lamps.

• Automatic Egg Incubator: An automatic egg incubator keeps chicken eggs in the best conditions for them to hatch.
