    How cold is too cold?

    Its in the feeder in their coop. If i hand feed them they go crazy. i also spread some around the straw and their coop and they started eating, the feeder is metal i think that may be why.

    How cold is too cold?

    My australorp has a very small spot that is more than likely frostbite. Edit: on her comb, i was told not to treat this because they have no nerves in their combs so they wont feel jt.

    How cold is too cold?

    Its negative 35 degrees Fahrenheit. I got all mine for cold temps, but those darn single combs look like they have frostbite today. I may look into the ceramic heat lamp i forgot those didnt put off light. As long as there isnt light it shouldnt cause a fire. My old ones would catch on fire if i...

    Panels are definitely safer. Ive never heard or seen a dog house heayer. I know its hard to tell what someone is saying though texting.
