Hey all. So I am recovering from 2 spine surgeries & we are (finally) expecting some snow here in CT. DH is away at work, or working 12 hour days. I cannot go outside in the snow to collect eggs so I was thinking about using my heated seed mats under the nest box material to keep the eggs from freezing for a couple days at a time till someone can collect them. Can anyone come up with a reason why that would be a bad idea? I don’t want the eggs to freeze, I finally have chickens laying again & I certainly don’t want to create any egg eaters.
Thoughts?
