Mine are contained in a 24"x24"x16" wire guinea pig cage, then covered in cardboard boxes cut to fit on all sides and the top (except for where the light is). We were going to use the rubbermaid type container and decided the temptation for our dog, old cat and new wild kitten would be too great. In less than 24 hours I've changed the water 3 or 4 times until figuring out I could elevate it on a wooden block AND wiped a but clean (gently with warm water on cotton balls) and I've already mentioned all the bulb wattages we've tried. Work will be tough tomorrow not being able to check on them every 15 minutes, lol!
My kids have flown the coop so now I have one wonderfully patient husband, three dogs, two cats, fish and now hens: 1 wheaten maran and 1 black ameraucanas, 1 brauma, 1 easter egger and a silkie!
There are two lasting bequests we can give our children. One is roots. The other is wings. ~Hodding Carter, Jr.
