I have one! I'm using the 50 chick size for 6 chicks approx 1 week old. It is hot to the touch, I raised mine a bit off the shavings. They love it! During the day they "nap" next to it, and at night they get under it and juuuust stick their little heads out. (They are in a 70 degree house so their heat needs are low ATM-but we'll be moving to be cold garage in the next few days!) They love to play and scratch and come out to eat and drink, climb all over the heat plate and then duck back under for a quick snuggle. Lovely!
