Description

The Economy Chick Starter Kit is the ideal starter pack for new and experienced chicken keepers, offering everything you need to raise your chicks in a safe, comfortable, and expandable environment. This kit is designed to adapt to your chicks’ growth while ensuring their well-being during their early weeks.


What’s Included:

  • Interlocking Double-Walled Cardboard Panels: Ten reusable panels (20" high x 24" wide) to create a protective "house."
  • Farmight Small Flock Feeder and Waterer: Feeder (1 quart) and waterer (1.5 liter).
  • Durvet Vitamins & Electrolytes: One 5-gram packet to promote health and hydration.
  • Heavy-Duty Heat Lamp: Durable ceramic socket and clamp.
  • 250-Watt Red Infrared Heat Bulb: Economical heating solution for your chicks.
  • My Pet Chicken Handbook: Comprehensive guide to raising healthy and happy chickens.

Key Features:

Superior Panels Form the "House"

  • Tall and Sturdy Design: The interlocking double-walled cardboard panels form a chick "house" that’s 20” high—a full 8” taller than standard starter kits. This extra height protects chicks from drafts and prevents them from jumping out until they’re older.
  • Reusable and Durable: The double-walled construction ensures stability and allows for multiple uses, making this a long-lasting solution for your chick-raising needs.
  • Expandable Layout:
    • Start with 4-6 panels for your smaller chicks.
    • Add more panels as they grow, creating up to 22 square feet of space, enough for 11-12 chicks up to five weeks old.

Heat Lamp and Infrared Heat Bulb

  • The 250-watt infrared bulb is an economical option to keep chicks warm.
  • Safety Note: Infrared bulbs can reach 435°F, posing a potential fire hazard. For a safer heating solution, consider upgrading to a kit that includes a heater plate.

Farmight Feeder and Waterer

  • Compact and translucent for easy monitoring of feed and water levels.
  • Provides a steady supply of essentials to ensure your chicks stay nourished and hydrated.

My Pet Chicken Handbook

  • Expertly written resource with practical tips for raising chicks, covering everything from beginner basics to troubleshooting.

Important Information:

  • Baby chicks are not included in this kit.
  • Shipping: If chicks are ordered alongside this kit and scheduled for next week’s hatch, they may arrive first. Be sure to plan for timely kit delivery to accommodate your chicks’ needs.
  • Returns: For health and safety reasons, food and vitamin products are non-returnable.

Give your chicks the best start with the Economy Chick Starter Kit, offering a protective, customizable environment and essential tools to raise your flock with confidence.
