Today we are building a brooder to raise baby chickens or turkeys in the lower level of our bank barn. When we aren't raising birds in it, we can use it as a birthing stall for our nigerian dwarf goats or stall for smaller livestock. We will cover the sides of the brooder with half inch hardware cloth to make it secure from small predators. We will make the door using a Kreg Jig to make pocket holes for our screws to hold it together. We will finish it off with an outlet on the ceiling and hooks to hang heat lamps from. The heat lamps will keep the baby chicks warm when they are young.

We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.
