    Proper temperature management during brooding is crucial for chick survival, immunity, and growth.

    Day 1: 32 – 34 degree C

    Day 2 – 7: Gradually reduce by 0.5 – 1 degree C per day

    By the end of the first week, the temperature should be around 30 degree C (86 degree F)

    The recommended temperature range for a brooding house during the first week is 93°F to 95°F

    For the first week of brooding, maintain a temperature range of 90 to 95°F (32 to 35°C), with the warmest area being near the heat source, and gradually reduce the temperature by 5°F (3°C) each week.

    Temperature between 30⁰c and 36⁰c is optimum in the first week. Above this, will cause heat stress.

    The first week of brooding, the recommended temperature range for a chicken house is typically 30°C to 32°C measured at the edge of the heat source where the chicks gather.

    Normally, we aim for an air temperature of 30oC for the whole house and 32oC at the edge of the brooder for spot brooding.
