I have been following the threads about the MHP brooder and thought I had it figured out, then i saw that someone had done it with the heating pad on the top of the cave. When a chicken broods chicks, she sits on them, hence the heat comes from above. So maybe the pad should be above? Blooie has had good results with it below so maybe it is just a preference thing. I am probably thinking too much but what does everyone else think? Chicks won't be here until April so I have time.
