How to T«>n Wi«n Baby Chicks
Are Warm Enough
You will raise much better pul.
lets if you always keep your chicks
at the right temperature A chick
should have a place to go to get
herself as warm as she wants to
get and then run around, eat,
drink and when she feels too cool
she should be able to go back and
get warm Her feed will not di
gest properly unless she has ex
actly the right blood temperature
As a chick gets older she goes
to the heat less often and by the
time she is 8 weeks old she usu
ally doesn’t need much extra heat
With electric and gas brooders
you should look under the hover
three or four times a day to see
what the chicks are doing If
they’re all standing up with their
shoulders together they are too
cold If they are not under the
center of the hoover and if they
are panting, they are too warm
If about half of them are standing
up and half of them sitting down,
the temperature under the hover
is just right A guard a foot to
two feet from the hover should
be used the first two days to keep
chicks from getting into the com
ers and huddling rather than go
ing under the brooder where they
belong With coal and oil brood
ers-this ring should be far enough
away so that the chicks can get
as cool as they want to get be
cause if you overheat them you
may ruin them for life
