Hey all I have read through a lot but wanted to start a new thread. We are using a Rubbermaid tote as our brooder and the chicks have been in it since Tues there are 10 days old, we have 6 RIRs.I purchased a premier heat plate as the light is to much, we have them inside and the room temp is 70 but the heat lamp even heats the room up. I am going to try to switch tomorrow has anyone done this and what worked for you. They seem to be doing good with the heat lamp but being inside I am worried about fire and think the plate will help them settle a little better.
