This chicken house heater for sale has been designed with both safety and efficiency in mind, so you can be sure that your chicks will stay comfortable all season long.

Directions For Use:

Run your Big Chicken Co Coop Heater for the winter for a few hours until the faint "new plastic" smell dissipates before introducing chicks. It is recommended to start your Big Chicken Co Coop Heater around six inches off the ground. Then, watch your chicks' behavior closely when they first enter their brooder: if they avoid the heat, raise it up. If they huddle underneath it and chirp loudly, lower it. It's as simple as that! Read the Installation instructions.

As with any electric heating device, special precautions must be taken:

Ensure that the heating surface is open to the air and that the heat is allowed to escape & circulate.
Allow a minimum of 6 inches of air space between the ground surface, bedding, straw hay, or any combustible materials.
Take special precautions to ensure that the brooder heater cannot be allowed to fall with its heating surface enclosed. Severe overheating may occur, which could result in combustion.
