Natural brooding is a system of brooding were farmers raised few chicken each year ,these types of brooding is always done naturally by the hen depending on the size of the hen where the hen will brood 10,15-20 chicken ,the hen will provide the warmth temperature required by the chicks ,this normally between three weeks period.

This types of brooding involved the management of chicks without the aids of hen , which is done by the means of temperature controlled brooder ,the artificial brooder has serval advantage over the natural brooding.
