Vertical Chicken Brooders?

A vertical chicken brooder is a type of poultry brooder that is designed to be used in a vertical configuration, as opposed to a traditional horizontal brooder. This type of brooder is often used for small flocks of chickens, or for brooding chicks in a limited space.

A vertical brooder typically consists of a tall, narrow cage or enclosure, with a heat lamp or other heat source at the top. The chicks are placed in the bottom of the brooder, and as they grow, they can move up the brooder to be closer to the heat source. This design allows for more efficient use of space, as the chicks can be housed in a smaller area compared to a traditional horizontal brooder.

The vertical design also has some benefits for the birds, such as it is more natural, with the chicks being able to move up and down the brooder, it can also reduce competition for space and food, and improve air circulation.

Vertical brooder are often made with metal wire, wood or plastic materials and are easy to assemble, clean and maintain. They come in different size, you should choose one that is appropriate for the number of birds you plan to raise.
