Pet Brooder 90 FAQ'S
The most commonly asked questions about our pet brooder 90.
1. What temperature should my Pet brooder be set at?
One of the most important fundamental functions of any puppy intensive care unit is consistently and reliably giving consistent temperature control.
The pet brooder 90 has made a huge impact in the industry for reliably delivering on all major functions.
Each litter may vary, but generally your puppy incubator should be around 85-90 degrees for the first week, reducing the temperature each week thereafter.
To find the sweet spot for your litter you will need to observe your puppies behavior. When puppies pile on top of each other they are showing that they are trying to find warmth, when puppies scatter to the sides trying to reach for the air outside of the incubator that may be an indicator that they are a little too warm.
