Quote: That would be very interesting-- CFL's , flourescent lights right? don't do well in the cold temps apparently. I have never tested this, though maybe I should. When you have time after you get settled at school.

Indeed. Our job as parents.Love your thinking Rick-- My kids are young and I can still influence them, I have been trying to help them be thinkers. Look it up on google then apply what you know to that information-- is it a good source of information? Is the information correct as you far as you know? I think the next generation does have have the capacity to understand the meaning and how to use the information when adults help them with that process. Have you heard of Destination Imagination? SInce my son and I did this, I continue to ask open questions, soliciting several possible solutions, then guide them thru selecting the best option. I also have to teach them to figure out the answer the teacher wants, which is not always the correct answer, to get high grades because only the kids with high grades get the scholarships to go to college. Kids need adults to help them learn thinking skills.

I use CFLs all over the place here, indoors and out. They do take a few minutes to come to full brightness when it's cold but I figure that's fine for the 'critters' anyway. Horses don't get the blinkies when I turn the lights on in the morning.
Now that is an interesting thought. I insist on daylight bulbs in our house. The yellowish cast of soft white bulbs bothers me.If my birds were 100% housed indoors, I think I would prefer full spectrum lighting.

Makes me wonder if animals, including chickens, would do better with daylight bulbs if they had lighting in their coop.
