Description
An electric comfort chick brooder is the efficient and safe way to keeping newly hatched poultry, game and waterfowl warm. This brooder is designed with both the bird and the poultry keeper in mind. This Comfort Brooder is ideal for 20 – 25 chicks. The low voltage heater panel warms the chicks directly by contact and radiant heat. It is far more economic and sustainable than a conventional infrared lamp, using about 10% of the electricity consumed by a 250 watt suspended lamp, which is important when you consider that heating is required 24 hours, 7 days a week for the at least 3 to 4 weeks. Contact with the comfort brooder is a more natural way of raising chicks than a heat lamp. It avoids the stress of being under light both night and day allowing the chicks to get used to the natural light cycle of night and day which improves weight gain and encourages feather growth. The metal heater plate of the Comfort Brooders improves heat radiation and evenness of temperature under the brooder. The lower contact temperature and easy click-lock height adjustment means that the chicks can be contact brooded (like mother hen) for maximum comfort and the lowest possible energy wastage. The Comfort Brooder’s easy height adjustment for a wide variety of species combines with it’s tough plastic and metal comstruction make it robust, durable and easy to clean. PLEASE NOTE: This product is for indoor use only and the room temperature should not drop below 10° C (50° F). The EcoGlow should be located in an area free from draughts and chicks should be provided with plenty of bedding. This product comes with a 12 month warantee covered by the Manufacturer.
