CosyHeat Heating Plate – the cosy hen replacement for chick rearing

After hatching, chicks have a particularly high need for warmth. In natural brooding, they warm themselves under the feathers of the mother hen, where heat accumulates to create a cosy temperature. The CosyHeat heating plate from Kerbl works on exactly this principle, reliably replacing the hen during chick rearing – without emitting light, so the chicks quickly adjust to a natural day-night rhythm.

The plate radiates heat downwards, creating a protective heat cushion underneath. An integrated rotary control allows stepless adjustment of the temperature to the chicks' needs, while the integrated thermostat keeps the temperature constant. Because the plate doesn't heat continuously, it is significantly more energy-efficient than conventional radiant heaters. Thanks to its height-adjustable legs, it's easy to adapt to the size of the animals – also ideal for quail, duck and other poultry chicks throughout their first weeks of life.

Overview:

  • Provides cosy warmth for up to 25 chicks
  • Ideal replacement for the mother hen during chick rearing
  • Suitable for quail, duck and other poultry breeds
  • Easy to use for beginners and hobby keepers
  • Height-adjustable legs for individual adjustment
  • Stepless temperature control via integrated rotary dial
  • More energy-efficient than conventional radiant heaters
  • Safe 24 V operation

Note on correct temperature setting:

Correct setting: Chicks stay calmly under the plate and only leave to eat and drink.

Too low: Chicks are restless, huddle together, chirp and won't come out from under it – increase the temperature.

Too high: Chicks stay only at the edge of the plate or outside it – reduce the temperature. Temperature can also be adjusted indirectly via the legs: lower the plate if too cold, raise it if too warm. For chicks of different sizes, the plate can be tilted.

From what age do chicks no longer need a heating plate?
Once their own plumage is developed, usually after a few weeks, warmth requirements drop noticeably and the plate can gradually be removed.

Can I also raise chicks of other poultry species with it?
Yes, the CosyHeat is suitable for quail, duck and other poultry chicks in addition to chickens.

How do I know the temperature is set correctly?
The chicks stay calm under the plate and only leave it to eat and drink.
