I am a first time chick owner and getting things set up for my soon to arrive chicks. I have been setting up and to get the temp high enough I have to put the lamp pretty close to the "floor." I don't want the little guys burning themselves so the question is; can the heat lamp be too close? How many inches of clearance do they need between the bulb and the floor?
