Designed to Reduce Chick Stress
This brooder is designed to help reduce stress in young birds by providing the important brooder basics in one setup.
It helps provide:
Regulated heat
Fresh air
Light
Feed access
Water access
A cleaner brooder floor
A secure early chick area
A consistent brooder environment helps chicks settle in, find feed and water, stay warm, and grow through the first two weeks.
Sanitary Mesh Floor and Clean-Out Tray
The Poultry Brooder uses mesh wire with a clean-out tray that slides out for easier cleaning. This design helps support cleaner brooder conditions by keeping chicks above the tray and making waste removal more convenient.
Good brooder hygiene matters because young chicks can soil their area quickly. A slide-out tray makes daily maintenance easier and helps customers keep the brooder cleaner during the early growth stage.
Easy Assembly and Plug-In Use
This brooder is made to be easy to put together and plug in for use. Customers should assemble the brooder, review the instructions, and test the unit before chicks arrive.
A brooder should be fully ready before birds are placed inside. That means heat, feed, water, airflow, and cleaning access should all be checked ahead of time.
Assembly videos are available on the Videos Tab.

alicia (verified owner) –
very happy
I ordered 2 of these to be ready for ducks in the spring. we got them set up and adjusted and are very happy with how they work!
Gary (verified owner) –
What an upgrade!
So much better than the box/heat lamp setup that I had. Get something (1/2 by 1/2 wire) to cover the feed/water troughs and you won’t have to worry about the openings as much.
Kim (verified owner) –
Nice compact stable unit
I purchased two of these units and hope to add a few more later. Super easy to clean and compact. I shopped around before I purchased and Crackle had the best price and free shipping!
Kenneth (verified owner) –
Good Product
I’ve had mine over a year now, and have no problem with it. Had lots of baby chicks grow thru it
Tommy –
Very well made brooder
We set ours up on an old table in the garage so it was easy to care for. I had a little chicken feather fuss/dust on my car after awhile. Oh well.
