REARING CHICKS IN BROODER HOUSE 133 



perature outside of the hover, on the hover floor; 

 still another degree on the main floor of the Brooder 

 House; and, then, there is the outdoor temperature. 

 When the chicks are first placed under the hovers, 

 during the first day, we carry the temperature at 95 

 degrees, and then slowly decrease this by raising the 

 hover. Where an adjustable hover is not used this 

 may be accomplished by turning down the lamp.
