I wanted to be able to control the heat without movimg the heat source, I found a nifty dimmer switch at lowes for $15.00
The heat lamp just plugs into the dimmer plug, the dimmer also has a slide control to adjust the lamp which controls the heat.
I use a 250W red heat lamp...
Okay I have a pair of Cochins I am not sure of their age, I got them as a pair and both are supposed to be the same age. The Rooster is doing his part of the breeding does this mean that she should be at the laying stage? Basically if they are old enough to breed are they old enough to lay?
simple design works great, fills from the top and i just tilt to reload bottom feed portion.
Fills from the top, chicken nipples on the bottom you can make it as long as you need to add more nipples. this one has four nipples each one is about a foot apart
I rescued this one he was getting beat up by a couple of mean girls (hens) they picked him bald headed. I am sure he is a game bird and all the rest of my birds are domestic breeds RR BR BSL etc. I am thinking he's a grey henny any help here?
