STWant the easiest chick brooder setup ever? 👇
Watch me set this up in just 12 seconds and see why it’s so far my favorite hack!🐤
Raising baby chicks doesn’t have to be hard or expensive! 🐣
I've found a brooder setup that I'm very excited to try out and share my experiences with, and it’s so simple, using a puppy play pen from Kmart. I really love Kmart lol.
Here’s why I think it will works so well.
First of all its going to be easy to clean.
The open design makes it super easy to wipe down and change bedding. No more tricky corners or heavy lifting.
It's super light and easy to move around.
Need to move it outside for sunshine or closer to the heat lamp? No problem! This playpen folds up and is super light, so you can carry it and move it anywhere.
The XL size is big enough for plenty of chicks to run, jump, and flap their wings and even do ZOOMIES!! It keeps them happy and healthy as they grow.
The sturdy sides keep your chicks safe and secure while letting air in. You can even watch them play without opening it up.
Its very customisable, you can add everything the babies need! A heat lamp, food and water, and even little perches for them to practice roosting.
Now that I think about it, I'll need to make another trip down to Kmart to have a scout around for some perches!
By putting puppy pee pads down it will not only help to soak up all the mess and make cleanup even faster, it will help give the little babes a non slip surface to help with their footing.
This setup is so easy, and your chicks will love it!
Save this post for your next chick season, or share it with a friend who needs a simple brooder idea.
Have you tried a setup like this before?
Let me know what works best for you! 👇

DIBuilding a chick brooder doesn’t have to be expensive! 🐣💡
I made this DIY brooder using a 27-gallon storage container, hardware cloth, and zip ties—super budget-friendly and easy to put together! It’s a great alternative to store-bought brooders and provides plenty of space for growing chicks.
✅ Why I love this setup:
✔️ Affordable—costs way less than pre-made brooders
✔️ Secure—keeps chicks safe while allowing airflow
✔️ Simple to clean and modify as chicks grow
🐥 How much space do chicks need? (There’s no one right answer here, so let me know how much space you give your chicks!)
➡️ 0-4 weeks: At least ½ sq. ft. per chick
➡️ 4-8 weeks: At least 1 sq. ft. per chick
➡️ 8+ weeks: At least 2-3 sq. ft. per chick before moving to the coop
🐥 Tip: Make sure to cover the top! Chicks start testing their wings sooner than you think.

JE🐣🔥Brooder set up for beginners! 🔥🐣
Setting up a chick brooder doesn’t have to break the bank!
This little setup is made with a Walmart plastic tote, a Sweeter Heater, a piece of scrap wood, plus a simple waterer and feeder and that’s really all your babies need to start off strong.
🐣🏠 A clean tote, pine shavings, safe heat, and fresh water will keep your chicks warm, dry, and thriving. You can always upgrade later, but for those first few weeks, simple is perfect.
🐣🌱 If you’re raising Silkies, Cochins, or any backyard chickens, this type of brooder is budget friendly, beginner friendly, and super easy to clean.
Happy hatching, everyone! 🐣🌱🥚

GRBaby Chicks arrived today! Here’s my set up for them. I wanted a brooder box that would store easily. I found the plans for this one @awoodennest I would recommend using smooth plywood though because the outside is a little splintery on this kind.

NIYou don’t need anything fancy to start raising chicks 🐣
A big cardboard box works just fine for a brooder. We used a box and then a pack n play at first 😂 and guess what? It worked!
Start simple. Upgrade when you’re ready. The chickens won’t judge your setup, I promise 😉

BHThis brooder box has changed the chick game for me!
It was big enough for our 17 babies with room to spare, though now we’re down to 10 babies after some already went to their new home!
Since we got our chicks, all of the Brahmas were getting picked on. I’m not sure why it was only them, but I was able to put the divider in, and they’re all healing up! Unfortunately, once the pecking starts and the girls see red, they’ll keep pecking until any wounded spots heal. Honestly, really grateful to my yesterday self for thinking ahead for my today self on the divider 🙌🏼

GRI can’t stand it when the chicks kick shavings into their waterers! Especially when we’re at work all day, we usually only check on them a few times a day and it’s the worst realizing they haven’t had clean water all day.
Using pine pellets has been our best finding for freshening up the brooders. I’ve lost track of how many times we’ve raised chicks in brooders, but this is our first time using pellets.
Although the pellets don’t go as far as a bag of shavings, the pellets have been worth it for us. And I’ll still use some shavings under the heat lamp, away from the waterers. Especially for the less messy, eggs layers.
What are some tips you’ve learned when raising chicks? ⬇️
