Kindnapping baby chicks to save them from the cold

What happens here

A heat lamp fixture, equipped with a red heat bulb, is positioned over a section of the brooder, shining its light onto the wood shavings. The lamp's power cord is plugged into an electrical power strip. To prevent accidental displacement or tipping, the heat lamp is securely fastened to the top edge of the metal stock tank using a large blue C-clamp, ensuring consistent and safe heat for the chicks.

Goal: A heat lamp with a red bulb is installed and clamped to the brooder tank to provide essential warmth.

  • C-clamp — Securing the heat lamp to the brooder tank
  • Electrical Power Strip — Providing electrical outlets for the heat lamp
  • Heat Lamp Fixture — Holding the heat bulb and directing heat
