Here you can see how DH wired up a space heater to a wafer therm, so that I could "dwell in" the temp, and the babies stayed toasty warm.
The heater on it's own, did not respond fast enough to keep the babies warm.
The wafer did excellent in turning the heater on & off exactly when the temps fluctuated.
The little tanish rectangular thingy is a wireless temp sensor, the temp readout is on my window sill...so I always knew exactly what the temp was inside, once the lid lowered.
DH made the hitch in front so we could easily pull it anywhere with the lawn tractor.
he made the hitch out of an old bed frame.

I'm going to have to show that to DH to see if he understands what all those gadgets are. He's an electrician, so I'm guessing he will. That's a good idea. Plan for now is to have the new girls in the chicken tractor until I get coop/run #2 done. Then, they'll move into their own coop, and remain quarantined there. That will open the little chicken tractor/tiny coop up to use as an extra shelter, or to grow out babies. Since we're going to take another shot at hatching, and it will be winter, maybe a set-up like that will let the babies play outside during the warmest part of the day in the tractor - of course, only after they have significant feathering in.

CR here is a pic:




Buried in crap....mostly boat stuff but it is getting rusty.
My brother heated a 2000sf home with this stove....ideally it would look like this:




Although the lower pic does not have the handels on it as ours does.
Great stove...very heavy..........DH has no legs on it in his shop...it is just on blocks but I think he still has the legs.
Otherwise, there is 10 ft of dual wall pipe, 2-45 degree bend dual wall. 10 foot single wall, 2- 45 degree single walls, and a twirly whirly topper(cap) (for the wind)
It is a Fedarl Airtight (Consl. Dutchwest)

Quote: Yes girly the only reason for the size of mine is that is a common wabbit cage and I had it laying around.

I know very few people who have wabbit cages just laying around.

I found that by going to the chicken auction here in town, that things like bunny cages can simply follow a person home.

This is the only explanation that I can come up with as to why I have an extra bunny cage at my house now.

Rene; if you would like to borrow it, just give me a PM. The cage has two sections, but it should work for what you need it for. My DH will be coming through Auburn at about 8:30am. He is willing to meet you at the Arco gas station that is by the Casino. Otherwise we can work something else out.

Thanks, but I don't think she's broody now. I think they're sleeping in the nest box to stay warm. They spend their days running around the yard (yes, I'll admit - I am letting the free-range again, but momma rooster (me) is frequently looking out the window.)

CR here is a pic:

When I was growing up, my step-dad used to heat his shop with a stove like that. It was pretty big - and his shop was always toasty warm!

Thanks CR!! I looked through that dang link and never once saw that! I did find my answer but it wasn't so simple as what you posted. Maybe I looked in the wrong spot. Who knows. Thanks though!

I don't know. Neither Drama or Caunnie are laying now. I don't think the lighting we have is enough. DH hasn't gotten around to wiring a light in. I've used multiple battery operated lights that I go out and turn on/turn off each day. They've discovered they can push on them and turn the lights off. Who says chickens aren't smart? They've managed to turn off ALL push-on lights multiple times. The past few days, every time I've gone out there, all lights that I've turned on, have been turned off again.

Tonight, they're sleeping in the nest boxes again.

But they were outside playing a lot this evening.
