They were all alive when I checked on them this morning, but huddled together by the feeder peeping their little heads off. I stuffed them back under the MHP and they settled down. I think I need to raise it a bit in the back for them. Hopefully they figure out that all they have to do is duck under there to warm up.Checking in since it’s been a couple of years since I used my MHP. I have it set on medium, about 2 1/2 - 3” high in front, and about 1 1/2” or so in back. In have it set on medium. Hoping that’s warm enough.(Temps around 40 tonight, freezing or below the rest of the week.) When I checked on them tonight, they were all tucked under, not a peep was heard. I’m taking that to mean they’re all warm and content.
In case anyone is wondering, they did figure it out. Went to check on them tonight, and not a chick to be seen. Just some contented little peeps from under the MHP.They were all alive when I checked on them this morning, but huddled together by the feeder peeping their little heads off.

I love those contented peeps, they warm my flinty old heart.In case anyone is wondering, they did figure it out. Went to check on them tonight, and not a chick to be seen. Just some contented little peeps from under the MHP.
I was just thinking the same thing. Mine are going out to the coop on Sunday (with their MHP) and I’ll really miss hearing their content little peeps as I creep past the brooder to my bedroom in the dark...I love those contented peeps, they warm my flinty old heart.
Mine went straight out to the coop. I used to keep chicks in the house, but I really don't like all the dust and dander they produce. Plus, with the cat, dog, and 3-year old grandson all in the house, they're really much safer out there!I was just thinking the same thing.

I hatched mine mostly for the benefit of the kids (ages 4 and 6), would’ve been too disappointing to start them in the coop. It’s been amazing watching them hatch and grow, and having them in here with us, as part of the family. They’re approaching 3 weeks and we’ve had no problems so far. 11 chicks, sand as brooder litter. They don’t smell and are not dusty (not that I can notice). We have air filters in every room and one next to the brooder, maybe that helps. We have a cat, too, but the brooder has a mesh on top so she can’t get to them. I’ll be very sad to take them out... I LOVE having them in here. But they need more space.Mine went straight out to the coop. I used to keep chicks in the house, but I really don't like all the dust and dander they produce.
