My 6 chicks are 2 weeks old tomorrow but are outgrowing their plastic bin. They are using the perch but it’s so crowded now. I’m going to use the giant cardboard box that the coop came in today. Therefore, I want to get rid of the red heatlamp and use a ceramic reptile bulb, though it’s a lower wattage. I think this will also help with getting them used to darkness. It’s still too windy and cold here to give them playtime outside so I think acclimation will be hard. I’m a newbie by the way. Any tips or advice welcome. Thank you!!

Here’s a picture of what they are in now (red light makes terrible pictures). There’s usually cardboard over the half with no light, but took it off for photo. Will post after photo later.
