    I picked up my Thermocube on Amazon; it works quite well. There are various models to meet your needs... I have the TC-1 (on at zero degrees and off at 10 degrees). I don't want to heat them too much inhibiting their own development of "cold hardiness." Farm Innovators made a nice chart...

    What I did that helped with the smell (at least I think this is what did it) - I plugged it in for several hours in my office. Then I let it cool down totally overnight, then plugged it in, and let it cool one more cycle. Once I completed this twice, the smell is almost all gone.

    We have (and intentionally selected) Cayugas for their cold tolerance. They have proven to be hardy little ducks thus far. I've yet to use the heater bar testing. We opted for the ThermoCube that comes on at 0 and off at 10 degrees F. I'm guessing it won't come on too often inside. I agree...

    @Miss Lydia , mine came in today! The company I ordered from informed me there's no real difference between the side mount and the chain mount aside from hardware. I figured I could pick up a chain anywhere, and make it chain mount should I need to... For others, the only other difference I...

    I went ahead and ordered the sweeter heater. Thanks again for the recommendation. I went with the hanging one as it was better suited for my application. It looks like I ordered just in time before the price went up. Mine appears be back ordered several weeks, but that's okay. Thanks again!

    I love this product recommendation! Thanks for the information, and I'm sorry about the loss of your sweet old Muscovy. Edit: Do you have any pictures of it installed in your coop?

    Okay, so, before everyone freaks out when I use the word "heater," I've done the research and I'm aware of the hazards of introducing heat. What I'm looking to talk about is the safest methods of delivering heat to ducks should you live in a climate area, or have a period of temperatures where...
