I have six day old chicks I just put in the brooder tub. They went right for the water without my having to dip their beaks...
Anyway...
I'm concerned the temperature is OK. I have a sixty watt bulb because the 100 watt got the temp up to over 110 degrees.
They seem comfortable. My question is...if they are not peeping and complaining then it is not too cold? And if they are not huddled out on the edges then they are not too hot?
I measured the temp right under the light and it was 95 degrees which is perfect...right?
