Shaledig 16x22 Chick Brooder Heater Plate: A Gentle, Consistent Warmth Source

Meet the Shaledig 16x22 Chick Brooder Heater Plate, a reliable warmth source designed for newborn chicks and small waterfowl. The large warming surface allows several birds to gather comfortably, creating a safe corner for rest and early growth. The plate's surface radiates steady warmth with minimal fuss, helping chicks settle in without the glare of traditional heat lamps.

Warmth designed to feel like a mother hen

The brooder plate provides a cozy, safe space that encourages natural huddling behavior. The expansive 16x22-inch surface supports up to about fifty chicks, offering room to spread out or cluster as needed. The design focuses warmth on the plate itself, reducing direct light exposure while maintaining a calm, dry microclimate for young birds.

• Large warming surface suited for multiple chicks
• Gentle, uniform heat with minimal light distraction

Smart temperature control for growing chicks

The system uses constant temperature control: while room temperature can vary between 50 and 86°F, the plate's surface stays within a predictable range of roughly 122°F to 149°F. This surface-based warmth supports early comfort and growth-stage needs without relying on air temperature alone.

• Surface-based heat provides reliable warmth
• Adjusts to meet different growth stages with a steady range

Energy smart and durable

With a 50-watt power draw, the heater plate minimizes energy use while delivering consistent warmth. The body is made from high-temperature resistant, non-flammable material, designed for daily use in busy brood days.

• Low energy consumption for ongoing use
• Durable, heat-resistant construction for longevity

Flexible setup for growing chicks

Adjustable height from 2.56 inches to 7.09 inches lets you tailor warmth height as chicks grow and bedding changes. Four sturdy legs ensure stability, and the simple four-step installation makes setup quick and straightforward.

• Height-adjustable to match growth and bedding
• Stable four-legged base for safe placement

Quiet, light-free warmth

Unlike some heat lamps, this plate focuses warmth with minimal light, supporting restful periods for chicks. A single indicator light confirms when the unit is active, making monitoring easy at a glance.
