How far in advance of chicks did people start warming the plate? I'm assuming it onlly needs 10 minutes or so to warm up, or longer? I thought if I plugged it in when i see the first pip...
Oh, I'm glad you reminded me. I put it on the grocery list last week and then promptly forgot! Thanks!I warmed mine up a few days ahead of time to make sure it worked. I think it takes about an hour to get to stabilize at full strength.
Then I turned it on a couple of hours before I picked up the chicks.
Don't forget the Press And Seal wrap on top. It works really well!
I cannot believe how quiet the chicks are under the plate!
You can use a lamp dimmer, but at first you won't need it, because you can use the heat plate at full strength and they love it.Do you need some sort of dimmer or temperature controller to go with it? Or is it sort of a set it and forget it type of thing?
