Yes, I have a thermometer. I don't know what you do with rags. Can you explain. Also, I am worried about the electricity going out. Weare on the east coast and it looks like the hurricane will effect us here. I don't want to have to sleep with the chicks to keep them warm. If the power goes out, how do people keep new chicks warm?
Sugar and vitamins ok. Thanks
