Description:

This Economy Chick Starter Kit comes with basic supplies that you will need to get your batch of chicks started off right!
The Economy Chick Starter Kit includes:

Please be aware that infrared heat bulbs aren't the safest choice. People have been using them to raise chicks for decades, and they're economical upfront, so they're extremely popular. But because these bulbs can reach 435°, they pose a fire hazard.

Please consider upgrading to one of the other Chick Staryer Kits that include a safe heater plate option. 

Superior panels form the "house"
Interlocking double-walled cardboard panels form the chick "house." Measuring 20” high, they are a full 8” taller than the typical starter kit, which means your chicks will be better protected from drafts and won’t be able to jump out until they’re much older! The double-walled design makes them extra sturdy, and able to be used over and over again.


Use as few as 4 panels, or as many as 10
Our kit includes ten panels, which creates 22 square feet of space — enough for up to 11 or 12 chickens, up to five weeks of age! You won't need that much space to start, though. Use just four or six panels when your babies are small — however many they need to be comfortable. You can easily add two panels at a time as they get bigger and require more space.
Please note: Baby chicks are not included in this kit. 

Shipping:

If you order chicks along with your starter kit and are scheduled for the next week's hatch, your chicks might arrive before your starter kit does. So, for the safety of your chicks, please plan accordingly and order your kit for timely delivery.

Please note: Our kit does not include a thermometer. The best way to gauge your flock's comfort level is to watch their behavior. More on that here.

Instructions:

Your kit includes instructions for assembling the brooder, plus all the "how-to" baby chick care information you'll need to get started, including how best to regulate the heat.

Returns:

Due to health and safety concerns, food products cannot be returned.
