Hey, y'all...Just an idea here

I'm thinking all of us bombarding the boy with suggestions is overwhelming him.
Better to let one person walk him through it, again; someone with a lot more experience, patience, & expertise than me.

Any volunteers?

Lol! But thanks for the reminder, I've been meaning to measure body temps of chickens with the ear thermometer. Thinking under the wing is probably a good place.

I tried it once with a rectal thermometer and got several different results in just a matter of minutes (102-105), so I called UC Davis and asked them how to take the temp of a bird and they told me that rectal temps are unreliable, but didn't offer any alternatives. Figured I'd try to see if I could get more reliable results under the wing.
