Awesome! Similar to the “MHP” set up people talk about that is usually done with a human heating pad. This looks like a great way to make a nice big one!

Maybe post a full tutorial of how you did it?

I haven't heard the acronym MHP before. On my search, I found this really nice article which has got me thinking about the "wool hens" it mentions.

There isn't much to a tutorial for mine. Just stick them together. Is there something that could be clearer?

It's probably about 65 outside.
Here they are enjoying sunshine instead of the artificial heat source. Most of them were sunning until I startled them awake.
