Key Features

  • High Capacity Brooding: Provides warmth for approximately 450 young birds from Day 1 until fully feathered, and for older birds during cold spells.
  • Efficient Infrared Heating: Directly warms birds and litter, ideal for the initial feathering period and for supplementary heating when temperatures drop.
  • Powerful 550W Output: Ensures consistent heat for maintaining optimal temperatures for a large group over extended periods.
  • Promotes Healthy Development: Vital for young birds (Day 1 until fully feathered) and beneficial for maintaining comfort and productivity in older birds during cold snaps.
  • Electric Powered Convenience: Simple plug-and-use operation for reliable heating whenever needed.

Consistent warmth is vital for poultry from Day 1 until they are fully feathered, and remains important for older birds during cold spells. The Poltek DRM Electric Brooder provides reliable infrared warmth for up to 450 birds. Its 550W ceramic element uses infrared technology, directly radiating heat energy onto the birds and the floor. This direct approach is highly efficient and beneficial for young poultry still developing their ability to regulate body temperature, and equally effective for providing comfort to older birds when needed. The consistent, gentle warmth from the Poltek DRM Electric Brooder helps prevent chilling, reduces stress, and encourages healthy activity. This supports better feed conversion, healthier growth, and improved survival rates. Easy to install and operate using standard electricity, the Poltek DRM Electric Brooder is a robust choice for farmers needing versatile and effective heating.
