Here we go again!
husband was off to Home Depot this afternoon to pick up some odds 'n' ends for yard repairs, and I asked him to look for a heat lamp or any kind of utility lamp with a safety cage on it to use in the chicken coop. I really want to get these four little critters OUT of my bathtub!
So what does he bring home? One of those standalone electric ceramic space heaters. Says it was on clearance for $30. I'm thinking "how the heck do we keep the chicks from burning themselves on this thing (which clearly says for use indoors on a level floor only) ?" while trying to... ummmm... thank him for the "creative" solution and not hurt his extremely sensitive feelings.
I thought he understood that I wanted something to hang above whatever perch they'll use in the coop for roosting at night. I guess I wasn't C L E A R enough.
Anyone else have someone in their life that needs a picture drawn for them in order to get your message across?
