Visit the Store Ecoglow 600 EcoGlow 600 Covers Ecoglow 1200 EcoGlow 1200 Covers Will it keep my chicks warm enough? Yes. It provides gentle radiant warmth - like a mother hen-warming chicks directly, not the whole brooder. They move in and out to find their own comfort zone. If they’re huddled tightly, lower the plate slightly. Can I use it outdoors? No. Until fully feathered, chicks need steady warmth to grow and thrive. Keep the brooder indoors above 50°F and away from drafts. Set the plate just above their backs and raise it as they grow. Which size brooder plate do I need? The 12"×8” EcoGlow 600 suits classrooms and small backyard broods - about 12-20 chicks depending on size and species. For larger or faster growing groups, choose the 17"×11” EcoGlow 1200. How safe is it? Our low voltage, low wattage radiant design stays at controlled temperatures, avoiding the extreme heat of traditional lamps or 110v plates and helping reduce common burn or fire concerns. Why should I spend more on a Brinsea product? Since 1976, Brinsea has set the standard in incubation. Every product is built to the highest standards, covered for 3 years and supported by a knowledgeable Florida‑based team - quality that pays off over time.

Directions: This product is for indoor use only and the room temperature should not drop below 50°F (10°C). To get the best use from this low power unit it is important to understand that there is no big margin of ‘spare’ heat and some precautions need to be taken. It is better to have the unit on a lower height setting. The chicks will move away from the EcoGlow if they are too warm. We recommend putting the brooder against one side of the brooder box so that the birds can only enter on the other side. This conserves warmth under the brooder but still allows birds to move freely out into the open as they wish. Another useful trick is to put the whole brooder box on a slab of 1” Styrofoam to reduce heat loss from the bottom. Because the heat from the black underside of the EcoGlow is largely radiant, measuring the temperature with a thermometer is of little value. Radiant heat passes through air without warming it. Only a solid object will absorb and be warmed by radiant heat. So a thermometer will register the air temperature but not the radiant heat and will usually show some 5 to 10°F lower than the effective temperature felt by the chicks. Always watch the behavior of the birds. They will naturally huddle together if they are cool. The more of them, the less external warmth they need.
