This brooder box for chicks indoors is perfect for your poultry brooder needs. Enjoy the ease of using this brooder's heating system instead of heat lamp bulbs, brooder heating plates, or brooder heat lamp for chicks. Those are a thing of the past!

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of birds work with this unit?

This unit is best suited for smaller gamebirds, such as quail, partridge and pheasants.

Is the flooring interchangeable or adjustable?

No it is not. The Jumbo Flooring Upgrade is only available for our Adult Breeding Cages. The floor is specifically made to avoid any leg issues with chicks.

Do the Brooders come with dividable middle walls?

No they do not. We also do not sell anything separately that can be used as a divider. Our brooders are fully open on the inside and dividers are not advised as the water source is located on one end of the cage and the chicks would not have a way to remove themselves from the heat.

Chick Brooder

I received the unit about 3 weeks ago and I’m in the process ofr putting it together. So far it’s what I wanted and expected. Just an FYI the directions for assembly are not very good, but if you look closely for the arrows to line up, that is a tremendous help. I’m giving 5 stars for now, I relly like it so far

Thank you for the review. There are video assembly guides on our website too that can help - The Hatching Time Team

5 Tier Brooder

We have both models of brooders (5 original from 2013 and 5 more in 2018 and they were an upgrade to the new style currently available - all bought from manufacturer in Turkey). In total 10 of the 5 tier brooders ... all work exceptionally well Fuses for the heater bars break but that is to be expected. All in all a great product!!

With a few modifications, it would be perfection.

I waited to write this review until I've had the chance to use it with several batches of quail chicks so I could get a good feel for the pros and cons. Starting off, the self watering system is awesome. It works well for the newly hatched chicks and adult birds. That being said, I recommend that you disassemble the cups and floats before fully installing them. I found some excess flashing from the fabrication process on the floats and hinges for the floats. This would cause them to get stuck in place and cause the cups to over flow. An easy fix, just remove the excess plastic and re-assemble. Also, keep an eye on the connections for the square tubes. One out of the five had an O-ring that was leaking. It was any easy fix there as well, just replaced it. Both those problems were less fun to deal with though because there is no shut off valve at the outlet of the water tank up top. I had to drain the tank both times in order to service the system. I like the plug at the bottom of the system to make draining easy, but a shut of valve at the top is a must in my opinion. I purchased one off of Amazon and was able to install it no problem.
Being able to pressure wash the whole thing is absolutely wonderful. The feeding troughs are excellent, with little to no food waste. The caged trough also makes it completely usable with day old chicks. The heating system works well, and kept my chicks warm and cozy even on the colder nights. I do wish that the light was on a separate switch from the heat source so that I could turn the lights out at night while keeping the chicks warm, but that's just a personal preference.
Great product though. I definitely recommend it to any one looking to raise caged quail.

Thank you for the review and suggestions, August. We use customer feedback to continuously improve our products. Accessories like shut off values are a great way to customize your cage system - The Hatching Time Team

Great boorders

I bought 2 of these 5 racks. We really love the easy clean up and breeze to raise chicks. We have mixed the layer cages and brooder cages together. Our quail chicks seem to huddle tight together in this brooder, chickens and ducks seem fairly fine. We don't see any issues so far. It was a bit hard to put together. Some parts wouldn't snap together. But all in all was well worth the time and money!

Thank you for the review, Joshua - The Hatching Time Team

brooder

i own a ct 180. It's amazing, so amazing that my first use i had a 75 percent hatching rate. I tried the diy brooder game but was working my self silly trying to keep them cleaned, fed and watered. Not to mention the money i spent. I called jason and ordered the 5 tier brooder, what a life saver. The brooder is a game changer, i can service 100 peeps in less than 15 minutes a day.

Great product

This is a pretty good product for someone expanding a hatching business however I think there should be a little more ventilation via holes near the top and corners to help spilled water dry up, prevent suffocation, etc. Overall, I am happy with this product, and I have successfully raised almost 800 quail chicks so far.

Thank you for the review, Connor - The Hatching Time Team

Angelique G.
Wonderful product. Great company.

Bought the 5 layer brooder a few weeks ago for our small farm. We just started and this thing is a life saver and a space saver. We went from homemade brooders everywhere to the 5 layer in one spot. Feeding is a breeze and so is clean up. The customer service is wonderful and answered all my questions and concerns timely. We will definitely be buying from them again as we expand.

Angelique, we are so happy that you love the brooder. We look forward to working with you in the future!

Water system

The design of this product is amazing! I was filling up little dishes that my chicks were constantly knocking over. I fill up the big water container and fill up the mini watering holes every now and then.

Hillary, glad to see that the starter drinkers are working for you!

Duke D.
Good capacity

I put all 200 of my chicks into this system and had no issues. The heating element worked well and I will be buying another one when my farm gets a little bit bigger. Good job on the design.

Phil, happy to hear that. Extra heating modules are always good to have on hand, just in case! We look forward to working with you in the future!
