The 10 Best Heating Plates For Chick Brooders

We strongly recommend using the cover to prevent older chicks from perching on top of the plate and keeps top of plate clean. Uses 22 watts/hr. The bottom-side of the heating plate reaches approximately 125 degrees when fully heated. Allow the plate 1 hour to heat the unit before placing the chicks under it. As the chicks grow, increase height of the plate above the bedding with the adjustable push-button legs. Plate is more effective when chicks can just touch the plate, especially when they are newly hatched. Warms up to 20 chicks. Heating plate is made of ABS plastic and polyurethane insulation and cover is heavy transparent plastic. Requires 110 volt outlet and has 70″ length cord. 1 year limited warranty on the electric heat plate unit.

Amazon’s choice Brinsea Eco Glow chick brooder for warming newly hatched chicks or ducklings (ASIN B008HVM56Q) has been redesigned to be even safer, more economical and easier to clean. The new Eco Glow 20 Safety 600 chick brooder is ideal for warming up to 20 newly hatched chicks or ducklings and suitable for any waterfowl or game-bird chicks. It is also ideal for classroom hatches. This chick warmer only uses 12 watts (5% of the electricity of typical suspended poultry heat lamps) because the chicks are in contact with its warm under-surface as they would under the mother hen. The new Eco Glow 20 Safety 600 chick brooder uses a metal warming plate which evens out hot and cold spots which occur with plastic heat plates improving heat radiation. The new flared skirt design also retains more heat further reducing energy use. Unlike other chick heating plates the Brinsea Eco Glow brooders run at 12Volt from a mains transformer (supplied) – a much safer option than mains voltage chicken heating plates or heat lamps. Other features include easy height settings for a wide range of chick sizes thanks to the 4 adjustable legs, a generous 10 feet power lead for extended reach, an indicator light, Bio master antimicrobial plastics and a FREE clear cover to make cleaning as easy as possible. Replacement covers are available in a pack of 3 (ASIN B07PZHPRML). 3-Year warranty subject to registration. For brooding larger numbers of chicks see the Brinsea Eco Glow Safety 1200 (ASIN B07PW2S49F)
