Solar Heating

[fiorecoop]

Hello new friends!
As a new chicken mom (babies to come soon), I was hoping to use a heat lamp based on solar power. But, much to my disappointment, I CANNOT find a single red light solar powered heat lamp. I cant even find adapters or solar lights with replaceable bulbs. I'm not running a huge coop, only 3-4 babies, so I don't need anything large scale. Hopefully you guys have heard of something that can help!
Thanks in advance,
Fiore Coop

Resistance heating draws a lot of power so it would take a significant solar setup to produce the necessary amount.

Ditto Dat!
I hope you have other means for heating the chicks.
