Despite having a heat lamp to keep them roasty-toasty, they sleep by packing themselves in like sardines, burying their little faces under their neighbor. The result looks like a fluffy carpet or rug (with the odd wing, beak, or foot sticking up out of the pile) that undulates as they breathe."

I'd like a 4 by 4 swatch of this carpeet delivered immediately, Dutch. I think I'll do my living room in it.
