I did this based on her thread, too. Made all the difference! I had a BO with pasty butt. It cleared up after going to the MHP. I think the natural day-to-night cycle is better for them. They get to sleep and "reset" their cycles.Blooie has a thread about MHP = heating pad ... I converted to it after using a 40 - 60 watt light bulb in a clamp, so much easier and the chicks do alot better in my opinion.
