How to Tell When Baby Chicks Are Warm Enough You will raise much better pullets if you always keep your chicks’at exactly the right temperature A chick should - have a place to go to get her self 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 digest properly unless she has exactly the right blood temperature As a chick sets older she goes to the heat less often and by the time she is 8 weeks old she usually doesn’t need much extra heat With electric and gas brood ers you should look under the hover three or four times a day to see what the chicks are do ing If they’re all standmg up with their shoulders together they are too. cold. If they are not under the enter of the hov er 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 from the hover should be used the first two days to keep chicks from getting into the corners and huddling rather than going under the brooder where they belong. With coal and oil brooders this nng should be far enough away so that the chicks can get as cool as they want to get because if you oveiheat them you may rum them for life.
