[QUOTE="Annie, post: 3068027, member: 42224"] I can freely admit that my "need" for that heat lamp is because of mh upbringing. We had probably 2 dozen pens with quail, dove, ducks and chickens of various breeds and they all had a hear lamp when temps got down this low. Like you guys, I have noticed that the cold doesn't seem to matter any of my feathered friends, as long as they have plenty of food and water. The other thing I do is in the evenings, right before they start getting ready to go in for the evening, I will take some warmed up leftovers out, mix a cup of scratch in it and give them a quick snack before bedtime. I know, I know, I know. :rotflmao: But I gotta tell ya, they REALLY like their bedtime snack! :popcorn: [/QUOTE]
