Why paint the brooder orange?

because I am not allowed to paint anything else orange lol

acrually its easier to give instructions when brooders are different colors. I have brown and orange, nexr maybe avacado green to keep with the retro 70s pattern

If it's 70's, then you must have one that is "Harvest Gold" (brown mustard yellow.)

I must agree with this. We have a bathroom with a lovely mustard yellow toilet and matching sink. Nothing changed in there since 1972!

Since you brought it up, that must have been a hit 1972 as well. Our main hall bathroom has all three in blue as well! And wallpaper with baby blue, white and MAUVE hearts.

I do love the orange on the brooder, oz. I really admire all your thought, planning, and organization in all of this!

Probably 1950s-1960s. You see lavender, yellow, and mint green in the 20s and 30s, then pink and blue more often in the 50s and 60s. They can look great if the original tile is all in place (or if you just go with it and do a vintage restoration).
