Baby Chicks Get Benefits . . .
By IRA MILLER
Farm Electrification Bureau
Some folks say that differences of
opinion help make the world go
round. They also are leading to the
creation of man-made environment so
stimulating to baby chicks that it
must come as a decided shock to them
to outgrow their early “electrical”
care,
Several years ago chicks arrived
from hatcheries to begin life under
electrically-heated, hover-type brood-
alas ad
When Differences Develop on Brooding
latter case farmers will need a con
crete floor or a tight wooden floo
to keep down heat losses and to mains
tain an even temperature under the
hover.
Tests show that a 120-foot heatin
cable unit, operating on 240 volts, wil
heat a floor area of about 25 square
feet—enough space for from 400 to
500 chicks. A 60-foot unit will
ate on 120 volts and heat 12% square
feet of floor area
Many farmers

| ers, which included everything from
thermostatic controls to built-in ven-
tilatibn fans. Some agricultural engi-
neers, however, thought that electri-
|cal brooding methods could be im-
proved. So, infra-red lamps came into
use in brooder houses.
| In this latest trend, farmers often
| install 250-watt lamps per unit to
| brood 500 chicks. The lamps are placed
[in pairs, with each pair about 24
inches dpart and suspended a mini-
mum of 15 inches above the litter.
Two wafer-type thermostats are used
| per unit.
| Other poultrymen have stuck by
| the hover-type brooder, with at least
| one major variation. This consists in
| the use of heating cable installed
{under the brooder. Cable is imbedded
Shown above are specifications for a heating cable type of chick brooder.
“heating cable” brooders, making
them 12 inches high, 2% feet wide
and 10 feet long. The brooders have
two 15- or 25-watt “attraction” lights
located approximately 2 feet in from
either side. Three sides of the brooder
are closed with insulation board. The
front has a curtain which hangs down
to within 2 inches from the floor.
A sheet of insulation board is placed
under the top boards which also
should have provisions for two ad-
justable air vents. Each brooder has
a thermostat. Operating costs vary
according to weather conditions. How
ever, in one typical test 1,336 kwh,
of electricity were required to brood
2,000 chicks in four “heating cable”
units during a recent early February
to April season.
