Re: [CHICKENS-101] Please help this idiot with heating!

them awake and eating.  Commercial chick raisers turn the lights on and off repeatedly.  Lights on, chicks wake up and eat.  Lights off, chicks go to sleep.  That would be regular lights, not red lights.  Red lights allow them to sleep even though WE can see them. 

So after the bathtub fiasco I got a Ware Mfr. Chick N Hutch (2 actually) and now raise chicks in them.

Ok, I'm just stupid thinking I could have chicks this time of the year.  I have always put them in an enclosed rabbit hutch with heat lamp.  Didn't work, too cold out, so the dern things are in my master bath, screaming their bloody heads off all night.  I have two heat lamps, one red, one clear and a portable heater on all night.  I didn't take a room temp, but I thought it was warm in there.  Please, do tell what I am to do to get them comfortable and let me sleep!  Or any great ideas for me to get them back out of my house (bleck!)

Many thanks!

Renee
