A clean, well-maintained brooder keeps chicks healthy, reduces the risk of bacteria and ammonia buildup, and helps prevent respiratory issues caused by dust and moisture. The key to easy maintenance is using the right products from the start.
Step 1: Add Hemp Bedding for Warmth & Absorption
Eaton Pet & Pasture’s Premium Hemp Bedding is the ultimate bedding choice for warmth, absorption, and odor control. Unlike traditional shavings, hemp bedding:
✔ Absorbs twice as much moisture as pine shavings
✔ Is low-dust to protect sensitive chick respiratory systems
✔ Is soft and cozy for delicate growing chicks
✔ Is compostable for an eco-friendly brooder
How to use:
- Spread a soft, even layer approximately 1 inch thick across the brooder floor for comfort and warmth.
- Spot clean daily and add fresh bedding as needed to keep the brooder dry and clean.
Step 2: Keep It Smelling Fresh with Roost Refresh
For an extra boost of freshness, Roost Refresh is a must-have for the brooder. Made with a blend of hemp fines and aromatic herbs, it naturally:
✔ Absorbs excess moisture to prevent ammonia buildup
✔ Keeps bedding fresher for longer
✔ Supports a calm and healthy environment for growing chicks
How to use:
- Lightly sprinkle Roost Refresh over the bedding to help control moisture and odors.
- Reapply as needed to extend bedding life and keep the brooder smelling fresh.
