It is understood that it would be folly to have little chicks chilled. When they are chilled they become weak, and fall prey to disease com mon to baby chicks.

On the other hand, when the brooder gets too hot, the vitality of the chicks weaken. Chicks need a warm room, this does not mean that the room should have the tempera ture of 103 degrees, as a hot room causes weak vitality in the chicks and consequently a large hole in'the profits of the poultryman.

Have the temperature for the first week at 98 degrees, and gradually decrease it until at the end of four weeks the temperature is at 85. After that use your own judgment, and go according to the weather.
