IBW is my own term... stands for Intense Bator Watch or can be Intense Broody Watch.
I love the Spot Check. It does take a bit of getting used to, however, it responds instantly to changes in temps and you get a true range of air temps to go by. I'm glad I finally bit the bullet and quit fooling around with the household ones. Heck, one of my AcuRites I used to use bit the dust! The screen completely died on me.

My chicks loved a little stuffed bean bag like frog!! It was one of those webkins and really nice made and they climbed all over it and would carry on like crazy when i took it out to clean it! Try one of those, i think they work great!
JamesA is coming to get the others today and after cleaning out the brooder, will get set up for these little ones just in case someone makes an early appearance.
