So does anyone have any recommendations on any SAFE bulbs? I have ducklings coming within the next three days and as of right now I don't have a bulb to use in the brooder lamp!
Does anyone know if the General Electric brand 250 watt heat lamps are safe? It says nothing on the package about having a Teflon coating or "shatter proof" or anything. On the back it says "Commercial applications include warming food, heating floor tile and farm uses".
Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I just bought one of these Westinghouse "brooder" bulbs from Tractor Supply. Thankfully it's not in use yet as my ducklings don't come until Tuesday or Wednesday. Obviously I won't be using this bulb now! What sort of bulb an I safely replace it with...
