This is what I do. I have a brooder box made out of styrofoam and I plug the lamp into an inverter which I plug into a battery pack. Since I only use a 15 watt bulb in the brooder, the battery pack will last for hrs.

Really? Your going to tempt me by having kids there? And my husband won't be there to tell me no?!?

I had to load the gander into the travel cage tonight....NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT ONE BIT!!!

And that's what he had to say about that! LOL!

Just so you guys know, I am leaving a bator full of hatching chicks to come see you. Two are out, 3 more are pipped, and I'm gonna leave the house. It's completely unheard of
