If you plan to hatch chicks, you may want to save this one!! This brooder box is a game changer!! Not only is it practical, but it’s also a great way to safely introduce the young chicks to their future flock. The transition from brooder to coop goes smoothly because the chicks are already familiar with the larger hens! 🐥 The only thing I’d consider doing differently next time is adding a slide-out bottom for easier cleaning — otherwise, we absolutely love our brooder! #OurLittleCoop #chickens
