just wanted to update. I was able to find a red "mood light" at another hardware store the other day. I'm using a ready for the dump cabinet without the doors on it's back as a brooder, and I had the red light (100watt) I think on most of the day. I just actually turned it off because it's reading 100 right under the light and the room is reading 93. I think having the bigger space for them is really helping. A few hours ago several were under the lamp, but several more were together on the cold side of the brooder. I'll turn the light back on soon and probably lower it for the night. They all seem to be doing good. One looked lethargic but I checked and the vent was covered... after a LONG soak with a wet towel I got it pretty clean and it let out a big poo right on me... So hopefully they'll all do okay!
