They are rarely huddled together which indicates to me that temps are just right.
Here is the shot I was hoping to get. ; )
This is a shot I was trying to take at eye level. That's Betsey showing her @ss again. How funny I got that shot on accident. I love it! Little fluffy butts!
That little stuffed animal hanging was in the incubator for the first chick that hatched well before everyone else. he was very loud until I put the stuffed animal in. Now he watches over the chick madness.

There is a large dowel and a natural twig above it so they can learn to roost.
Here I pulled the papertowels back so you can see the shavings underneath. After week 1 the papertowels go away and they are walking on shavings only unless they are on the blanket/heating pad side. Blanket and heating pad come out at the end of week two as the garage is holding a perfect temp on its own for a 3 week old chick.
I placed two towels in the cart first, then added 2 rubbermaid lids, large pine shavings in half, and a heating pad under blanket in the other half. I pulled the towel back so you can see.
