Chick brooder setup! Things you need for a chick brooder:1: Bedding. I used pine shavings, but you can also use hemp bedding.

Their water needs to be checked more often too because it’s more likely to get tipped over or dirty. I added Purina’s Electrolyte Supplement powder to their water to give extra reassurance that they were getting what they need
