Wow. Nice brooder Trailboss. Looks like you did put a lot of work into it. Thanks for sharing the pictures.
You have too much time off. Not fair....!
Sweet, how much it cost you to make?
I must say though, that at 20 degrees in an unheated garage that is impressive. I try to keep them alive in a heated garage when the door opens to take cars in and out at -30 degrees.

Great job. I am also trying to figure out what to do for a brooder in cold climates.My concern is about building something well insulated but not shorting the birds of fresh air to be able to breath. Any words of wisdom?
I see what you are saying now. Do you have any problems with the birds pecking at the insulation?
Is that the heater in the middle I see in the one picture? I was guessing to get warm air to circulate around it would need to be on a side. I like the slider idea. Our temps can go from 20F at night to 70F in the day until late spring/early summer. I hope you didnt pattend any of it because i will probobly steel some of your design. Of course mine will have more of the "rough" carpentry look.
