Chirping
Hi all! I am currently raising 7 chicks in my basement bedroom.
Temp in the room is over 80 with a space heater on low.
I have a heat plate brooder.
My chicks are all roughly 7 days.
I do have one small silkie, everyone seems happy, chirping, eating, drinking, sleeping, pooping.
I had the plate set to low on its legs one side and higher on the other, it’s on heater setting. Temp under the brooder in the center is 95 degrees.
What’s the next step? Do I raise it on all legs? Leave it on heater or change to brooder?
I tried to find information but wasn’t seeing anything specific.
