Proper Brooder Setup

5
  1. Solution: Prepare a draft-free brooder space with appropriate bedding.
  2. Explanation: Use a container like a stock tank, large plastic tote, or a sectioned-off area. Ensure it's safe from drafts. Line the bottom with 2-4 inches of absorbent bedding (pine shavings recommended, avoid cedar). Avoid slippery surfaces like newspaper for the first week to prevent leg issues.
  3. Notes: Ensure the brooder is cleaned before poults arrive.
