Brooding

Chicken Brooder Temperatures

Chicks are sensitive to temperature so in this project our main goal is to maintain a temperature that is similar to real chickens brooders. Also chicks temperatures are differ depending on the chicks age

- For first week chicks , it has to be a 90-95 F

- For the second week, it has to be from 80-85 F

- For the third week, it has to be from 70-75, Then it would go down another 5, however usually at the fifth week we remove the heat lamp

In addition to that, we have to make sure that the heat lamp temperature maintain a specific range, in order to make sure that the chicken brooder is a great environment for the chicks

The Agronimo hatching device, the Henmulator, has brooding capability
