Well, to answer your question as to why Laundromat the towels?........ When my wife's grandmother passed away, she had tons of bath towels, but smaller than we use here. DW wanted to throw them away, but I hoard stuff like that. Then.......the quail hatching / brooding / raising thing came along......thus a use for the old towels. I admit, I'm a clean freak.......house, barns, sheds, quail pens, incubators, etc.........and yes.....quail brooder mats (the towels). Yep they're fairly clean when I get through rinsing them several times in industrial soap and bleach, but it only costs a couple of bucks to wash 20 or so towels (yes, in more bleach), and another couple of bucks to dry them. And no, to go throw a big pile of towels coated in bird poop in a washer.......any public washer.........would be about as disrespectful as they come. I guess I didn't think that many people would mis-read "between the lines" as they say. I try to use good judgement in what I write on this and other forums, and yes....it seems some folks read "BAD" things into posts that are meant to help others..........Dunno..........maybe it's just me! I'm here to learn just like (most) others, but being jumped about something that was misinterpeted kinda makes it less fun anymore......
