ButtonBag

We're into the first week of incubating our 7 shipped button quail eggs and are getting onto setting up a plastic tote brooder. The biggest decision at the moment is whether to use a heat lamp (possibly infra-red so they can sleep better) which I'm a bit concerned about over-heating the whole box, a heat plate which I'm not sure button chicks will fit under properly, or a heat pad which I'm not sure will get hot enough! Does anyone have a tried and true method specifically for button chicks?
