@City-Chickee we love our Brinsea EcoGlow, too! We have the 50-chicken brooder, and we're currently brooding our 3rd batch of chicks with it. I like that it takes the guesswork out of whether they're too hot our too cold and allows them to self-regulate. I also appreciate that it uses less...
Hi there spencedr!
We didn't do anything special for the ventilation. There is some natural air leaks when the garage is shut up, just because of the nature of the garage, but it has also been nice enough for us to leave the garage door open when we are out doing yardwork or other chores...
We are SOOOO excited for the arrival of our day-old chicks, which will be ready for us to pick up from the post office in the morning! We will be adding them to a brooder which is also housing our 3-week-old brood that we got as day-old chicks on April 7. All total, there will be 22 chicks...
