Hi there! Unfortunately I have been unable to find a battery operated heating device for chicks. I think there just isn’t enough of us wanting them for a company to produce the product. If you are looking for something with low power consumption to run off of a small solar system, this chick brooder has good reviews and uses 15 watts, compared to a heat lamp using 250 watts.

Glad you found this useful, even on the grid! 🙂

We very frequently lose electricity, here in the boondocks of Maine, so I always have to be prepared with alternative measures for keeping chicks warm, even though we’re not off grid. These are all super helpful pointers!!
