The girls are 7 days old. From day one they have avoided the heat lamp. It was at 95 degrees, so I raised it and took the temp down to 90 and they were happy. Yesterday they started avoiding it again so I raised it a tad and dropped the temp down to 86 and they are happy again.
Should I just listen to them or should I lower the lamp and raise the temp again? I really think trusting them to know they are too warm is the best way but I want experienced opinions on this one.
My girl with pasty butt...that only lasted 2 days...is that normal or okay? I check her several times per day but she has been fine for 2 days now so far.
Thanks for the input in advance.
