Description:
Made by hand in the USA! Fight boredom, encourage activity, and give your chicks a fun place to roost, hop and rest with our exclusive Chick Jungle Gym. Available in three sizes to choose from as a DIY kit. Includes easy-to-assemble materials and instructions; this jungle gym was designed and made by one of our very own customers using high-quality materials. (The DIY kit is easy to assemble and makes a great project for a child and grownup to collaborate on. You only need a Phillips screwdriver!)
The Chick Jungle Gym is designed to encourage chickens' natural instinct to roost. Recommended for chicks one week to eight weeks old, the holes in the side offer extra roosting space and a way to "escape" should they stumble or fall underneath. We found some of our chicks really like to hop through and sleep in those holes, too. And if you have a chick getting bullied, the Chick Jungle Gym may give her a great way to hide from the aggressor!
Position your Chick Jungle Gym far enough away from your heat source that you don't have to worry about it overheating (and always use safer heaters like these), and also far enough away from your brooder walls that chicks can easily get around it. Play around with positioning for maximum comfort and enjoyment of your brood.

Your Jungle Gym will be easier to clean if you choose to have it sealed with PolyWhey® Exterior Penetrating Wood Stain. Select an option above before adding to the cart.
PolyWhey’s patented formula harnesses the power of whey protein, a byproduct of cheese making, and uses these proteins to replace the toxic ingredients traditionally found in wood finish. The result is a naturally durable, safe, and easy-to-use finish that has established the industry's highest performance and environmental standards.
