Elite Chick Heating Plate – 25 x 25 cm
A safe and practical way to provide gentle warmth for young chicks without heating the entire brooder.
The Elite Chick Heating Plate provides a warm surface underneath which chicks can shelter and regulate their own temperature. This allows chicks to move in and out from underneath the plate as they need, providing a more natural way for them to manage their body temperature.
With a compact 25 x 25 cm design, it is well suited to smaller brooders and backyard chick-rearing setups.
Features
25 x 25 cm heating surface
Designed specifically for young chicks
Provides gentle, localised warmth
Allows chicks to move freely between warm and cooler areas
Height-adjustable to accommodate growing chicks
Suitable for use in brooders
Uses less energy than heating an entire brooder area
Why we like it
Unlike a traditional heat lamp, a heating plate warms the chicks underneath it rather than heating the entire brooder.
Chicks can move underneath the plate when they need warmth and move away when they become too warm. This creates a more natural brooding environment and allows the chicks to regulate their own comfort.
The absence of a bright light also means chicks can experience a more natural day-and-night cycle.
Important
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for setup and use. Position the heating plate securely and ensure chicks have enough space to move freely between the heated and unheated areas.
Regularly check the chicks and their environment to ensure they are warm, dry and comfortable.
