LPG infra-red brooding burners providing precise, uniform chick-level heating for healthy broiler and layer development in poultry farms.
Day-old chicks cannot regulate their body temperature and require external heat sources (brooders) for the first 3-4 weeks of life. LPG-fired infra-red brooders hung 3-5 feet above the floor maintain the critical floor-level temperature (32-35°C in Week 1, tapering to 24°C by Week 4) needed for optimal chick survival and growth.
BPCL Commercial LPG is used across India's poultry sector for brooding in broiler, layer, and breeder farms. One LPG burner at 60 g/hour provides adequate heating for 800 chicks - and a full 45-day broiler cycle consumes approximately 15.2 kg per burner.
LPG infra-red brooders heat chicks directly without warming the surrounding air - maximising efficiency.
LPG burners can create warm zones while maintaining cooler areas - allowing chicks to self-regulate.
LPG brooding costs are 40-50% lower than electric heat lamp alternatives for large-scale poultry operations.
BPCL's rural distributor network ensures 19 kg and 35 kg cylinders reach even remote poultry farms.
Bulk piped LPG supply is also available for high-volume consumers. Contact BPCL to discuss your requirements.
