Whites.... I'm pulling for you.
When I quit smoking it was hard.
I was a chain smoker for 15 years.... I was one of those light my next cigarette with my old cigarette kinda smokers..... Back then you could still smoke just about anywhere you wanted and cigarettes were less than 2 dollars a pack..... At the BX on base a carton of no brand was 2 bucks.
Is kinda funny I want trying that hard when I did finally quit.... I think God was looking out for me cuz when I got Leukemia a few years later they told me I probably wouldn't have lived through the bone marrow transplant if a hadn't quit.

Pink!!!! go girl go!!!!
Now I remember why I come to visit for a while, then leave for a while, then come back....lather, rinse, repeat..... I go to bed for a just a few hours sleep and come back to over 100 posts. Whew!! My eyes are old!! The rest of me matches. As for hatching this year, I'm still on the fence. We'll be traveling a ton this year. Our favorite feed store is expecting chicks today, but I'd already decided that I was going to skip any chicks this season. HELP ME BE STRONG!

@ChickenCanoe That question about raising it may be answered on the mhp thread or @Fire Ant Farm should have a good answer. I planned two things. A larger frame with two pads and bricks. I hope she shares what has worked her.

The reason I like to use a leftover piece of wire welded fence is because to raise it I just pull up on the middle. To lower it I smoosh it down in the center. Easy. When I first tossed the heat lamp forever, I was looking into alternatives. I was fascinated by the EgoGlow brooders but:

A - I couldn't justify the expense for as seldom as I thought I'd be raising chicks
B - I wanted something soft and snuggly, more like Mama Hen, rather than something rigid
C - I liked that the cave was nice and dark, just as it is for them under a broody, rather than just being a straight canopy over their heads, so at night time they sleep all night through.
