ALUMINIUM FRAMEWORK

Aluminium, unlike steel or timber, will not rust or deteriorate in the weather. You can be rest assured that your brooder will be looking just as great in many years time.

Black Frame Optional Upgrade: Brooder boxes are made standard with silver anodized aluminium framework, however black framework is also available as an optional upgrade.

SMALL-SIZED GALVANIZED MESH

These brooder boxes are made with mini steel mesh, 1.24mm gauge with 12.5mm squares. This strong mesh is difficult to accidentally damage and looks great.

MINI FLUTED CORRUGATED IRON

The brooder boxes are made standard using zincalume mini fluted iron.

Colorbond Optional Upgrade: The brooders are also available using Colorbond materials for the walls, back wall and roof panels. Colorbond colours to choose from are Pale Eucalypt, Deep Ocean, Woodland Grey and Monument.

MESH FRONT FOR EASY VIEWING

This brooder has been designed to allow for easy viewing of your newly hatched chicks. Great for kids and school environments.

ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT LAMP STAND

As chicks need varying temperatures as they grow. This brooder has a built-in light stand so you can adjust the height of your heat lamp depending on the age of your chicks. If you have an alternative light or heat source and don’t need the lamp stand, this can be excluded from your brooder when made.

DUAL HINGED ROOF PANELS

The heat lamp is designed to sit above the mesh section on the brooder to allow light to shine through but to ensure your chicks are kept safe from family pets! There are two roof panels that are hinged separately. The enclosed mini corrugated lid can be opened to add feed and water or to clean out the bedding. The mesh lid will normally stay shut while the heat lamp is in place but can also be opened when needed.

LITTER GUARD

The front of the brooder has a large mesh panel for easy viewing as well as a thin litter guard made from aluminium composite panel. This has no sharp edges and ensures that your wood shavings won’t be constantly scratched out of your brooder and onto your floor.

TABLE TOP OR FREESTANDING MODELS

The brooder can either be made with legs so it can be freestanding or can be made without if you prefer to have it sitting on a table top.

REMOVABLE FLOOR FOR EASY CLEANING

The floor in the brooder box is made from strong, white aluminium composite panel. This is a removable floor to make cleaning of your brooder very easy once your chicks have outgrown their temporary home. A quick hose off and dry off in the sun and your coop will be ready to go for the next batch of chicks.

NUMBER OF CHICKS

As chicks grow they need considerably more space than when they first hatch. The table below provides a guide of the space requirements.

CHICKEN FEEDERS & DRINKERS

Royal Rooster’s very popular drinker and feeder sets are also ideal for baby chicks as they can’t easily step in or spill their food or water. We have available mini drinker and feeder sets that fit in these brooders and are attached to the side or mesh walls with metal brackets.

DELIVERY INSURANCE (optional)

Highly recommended. This covers the replacement or repair of your brooder if damaged in transit as well as the freight to transport damaged parts back to us and new parts over to you. Only $15 for peace of mind.

ASSEMBLY REQUIREMENTS

These brooder are very simple to put together and come with detailed, illustrated instructions. You’ll need just a rubber mallet to put together. Assembly time should be around 30 minutes.

AUSTRALIAN MADE

All Royal Rooster products are made right here in Australia from top quality materials and workmanship.

LEAD TIME & FREIGHT

All coops are made in our purpose built premises on Theen Ave, Willaston in South Australia. Lead times on orders can vary depending on the time of the year and other factors out of our control. Please click here to see that latest lead time on orders.

TNT generally takes between 1-2 weeks to deliver items once picked up from us. Picking up from a TNT depot rather than having your order delivered to your home can save quite a lot in delivery costs. So that is also an option when you go to check out. Smaller items are sent with Australia Post rather than TNT. 

If you live in SA you’re most welcome to pick up your order from our premises at 43 Theen Ave Willaston.
