    Hawk attack, how to find wounds?

    My little silver spangled hamburg was attacked by a hawk yesterday, she's still alive and is up and moving some. I'm not sure if she has any wounds on her body and she's so densely feathered I'm not sure how to look her over. I gave her a feel last night but aside from dirt I didn't feel...

    Does this look/ sound like mareks?

    Cooler Bator peoples, how would you arrange?

    I got this large Styrofoam cooler from petsmart. I'm trying to figure out the best way to arrange the bulbs and thermostat. I figure I could either mount them low under the indent where I'll have my egg rack, or I could put them on the lid, or against one of the sides. Thoughts?
