Debbie, you do know that in a pinch you can use your spare bathtub for a brooder and it works great! Easy cleanup after you are done, etc.! You can hang your heat lamp from the acrylic bar on the back and it is at just the correct height to keep the biddies warm, but not hot!

Tell him to order an incubator instead... then you can get all kinds of eggs from people on here and have the fun of hatching. Plus that will give your other chickies a few weeks to leave the brooder . The incubator is a good investment... many more chickies in your future with your own chickens then

Oh a bator is on the list!!!!!! I just know him and his obsession with Polish. I got my silkies so you can bet he is now searching for his Polish birds.
Actually tell your hubby to order from Ideal. Ive heard alot of things about McMurray that werent possitive, and Ive never heard a single bad thing about Ideal.
