I understand the curiosity aspect but I'm guessing you'll need to use your google Fu and find a scientific study somewhere if there is one.

I merely asked if your light was red......and I did provide a link to an article by a poultry vet about light color and winter laying.
I understand why you might need to use heat, just wondered why not 24/7.
Sorry that part was meant for the original poster on figuring out how far north do chickens survive without light.
I'm guessing they will need to find a scientific study for that as its unlikely anyone here could answer from our own experience.
I know I'd be hard pressed to say my chicken died from lack of daylight.

If my chickens show signs of trouble or we see prolonged extreme cold I'll up the heat to 24/7 with a milkhouse heater (already purchased on sale)and put a regular bulb in the timed heat lamp.
But so far I'm not seeing as they need it.
No my light isn't red.
It provides both light and heat and is secured from falling by a quick link and an eye Bolt.
Ah ok, thanks, hard to tell on these sometimes.
