Tomorrow I'll be renting an incubator from a local farm here that rents out to people to hatch chicken.
Upon calling I have done a lot of research... a lot. I'm one of those people who needs a whole lot of info before doing something.
Anyway, I have a question about the brooder box. I do not have a heat lamp...I used to but I sold it. I looked up home made brooder boxes on images.google.com and it came up with this:
It is not mine since i don't have chicks, nor eggs yet. I am getting a dz eggs tomorrow.
I have everything seen here in this picture (box and the lamp thingy). how much watts do you need for this lamp to keep the chicks warm?
(The chicks are sooo cute...)
