So if your like me and don’t like your chicks pooping on your heating plate then you have probably looked into ways to keep them off. I use the eggluulz 10x10 inch heating plate. So I began looking at anti-roost cones. You can spend anywhere from 17-40$ easily on one of those. So one day I was looking at my plate and was trying to come up with an economical way to keep them off. I drive a diesel truck and have to buy the DEF fluid which comes in a a cardboard box. I cut the end out of the box and it slid perfectly over the top of the plate with all 4 adjustment posts inside the box. If you don’t drive a diesel that’s okay you can buy some def fluid from the auto store for cheap. Like 6-8$ and gift it to someone who does use it and keep the box 
. Or get them to buy it and give you the box. Anyway, I thought I’d share this with you all as it’s worked out flawlessly. Here’s a top down view so you can see! Yes that’s a camera I have mounted to the box. I love to watch the chicks during the day. My dog loves to come check on the chicks with me anytime she gets a chance.

Old dogs are the best! Ben Obi is our third Chessie. It can be trying to have to explain what they are to everyone, but they truly are not for everyone.
