Yikes! That's scary. Glad you got out okay!

Thank God we climb out of the bathroom window.

Good grief that's crazy! You'll have a story for your grandkids someday!

oh wow. 250... i've got a 40w heat emitter in there now, the youngest chicks climb the bunny (stuffed animal to help prevent chick piles & squashed babies) and the older chicks spread out from there in a nice fuzzy layer.

then i just raise the lamp up a bit every couple days as long as nobody's piling on the bunny. (machine washable between hatches - see some of my other pics i've posted earlier)
