325mm 110v 500w Clear Carbon Fiber Heating Lamp For Poultry Farming from Goldisgood Application
  1. Brooding Chicks
    • Initial Heating: Newly – hatched chicks are unable to regulate their body temperature effectively and rely on an external heat source. The 325mm 110v 500w Clear Carbon Fiber Heating Lamp provides a warm environment for them. The infrared heat emitted by the carbon fiber element warms the chicks directly. In the first week after hatching, the lamp can be placed at a height of about 18 – 24 inches above the floor of the brooder box to maintain a temperature of around 95°F (35°C). This warm zone is crucial for the chicks’ survival and healthy growth.
    • Temperature Gradient Creation: As the chicks grow, the height of the lamp can be adjusted to create a temperature gradient. By the second week, the temperature can be reduced to around 90°F (32°C) and so on. This allows the chicks to move in and out of the warmer area as they need, which helps them develop their own thermoregulatory abilities. The relatively wide coverage of the 325mm lamp ensures that a group of chicks can be accommodated in a single brooder box with a suitable temperature range.
