Do you dream of raising healthy, happy chicks? This chicken starter kit is designed to provide a clean, organized, and stress-free setup for poultry enthusiasts like you. Whether you're starting your backyard chicken starter kit journey or upgrading your setup, you can raise up to 15 chicks with ease using Hatching Time's innovative and hygienic system ideal for any poultry starter kit.

Getting Started:

Step 1: Brooding (First 6 weeks of life)
For the first 6 weeks, the Chick Brooder – 1 Layer functions as an efficient chick brooder kit and brooder for baby chicks, supplying essential heat to keep your chicks comfortable. It includes starter feeders and drinkers to ensure a consistent food and water supply. The automatic heating system maintains an optimal temperature, promoting healthy growth. You may remove the heating unit earlier than 6 weeks if your chicks no longer require supplemental heat. This makes it a great component of any chicken brooder kit setup.

Step 2: Transition to Breeding Layer (After 6 weeks of life)
Once your chicks mature, move them to the Chicken Cage Layer Addition—an effective chicken layer cage and breeding cage for chickens. It improves space management and provides an organized egg collection system. The roll-out egg tray keeps eggs clean and crack-free, while deep manure trays simplify cleanup, making it ideal for any scale of chicken raising kit.

Disclaimer: The suggested timelines are estimates and may vary depending on breed and room temperature. Warmer conditions may require less supplemental heat, allowing birds to transition to the layer cage sooner.

Why Plastic?

Our PP Plastic (Polypropylene) COMFORTPLAST® system offers a durable, rust-proof, and hygienic solution for chicken raising. The fully washable design minimizes bacteria buildup, ensuring a clean and safe environment for your birds. Did we mention you’ll save money? The energy-efficient heating system regulates itself automatically, reducing energy costs. Plus, our innovative feeder design minimizes feed waste, ensuring your hard-earned money doesn’t end up on the floor.

Why Buy From Us

Why Buy From Four Leaf Coop Co?

A chicken coop, greenhouse, or freeze dryer is a big purchase, and you may be buying from a store you’ve never heard of. Here’s what you can count on from us.

You’ll reach a real person.
Four Leaf Coop Co is founder-run. I’m Milissa, and when you call, text, or email, you’re talking with someone who knows these products, not a call center. Before you buy, we’ll help you compare sizes and options. After delivery, we’ll work with the manufacturer on your behalf if anything goes wrong.

Approved retailer for every brand we carry.
Your order ships directly from the manufacturer, so you get the same product and manufacturer warranty you’d get buying from them.

Every page checked against the manufacturer.
Specs, measurements, manuals, and warranty details are verified against the manufacturer’s own information, so what you read is what arrives.

No shipping surprises.
Each product page explains how that item ships, how long it takes, whether it comes by freight, and whether you’ll need help unloading it. You’ll know before you order, not on delivery day.

A smaller lineup, chosen carefully.
We’d rather carry fewer products we can stand behind than thousands of listings. Every product is vetted, including its customer reviews, before it goes on the site.
