    Can I use a regular bulb in a heat lamp??

    Thanks for the response! My lamp is metal, shaped like a dome, and clamps. I believe it said heat lamp on the package when we bought it. It was in the chicken isle next to the 250w red heat bulbs. I just want to make sure it's safe to use a non heat bulb in it.

    Am I a girl? 13 Week old Marans

    This is my 13 Week Old Marans chick Maybel. I am wondering if she is a roo or pullet. She hasn't crowed or anything, but she is VERY skittish, and her tail is looking awfully rooish to me...what do you think and why? Thanks!
