Keep in mind that you are in Texas. Here in MN I have 2 - 250 watt lights going in the brooder right now. It would also depend on where you are brooding. I am in a 35 degree barn while many others brood in their 70 degree homes.

This is true sometimes I do forget to look to see where people are from so I do stand corrected.

It must,
I call my DW in to see something and she doesn't find the humor in it,She also finds it weird that I can sit and watch my chicks for hours on end. I try to explain the humor in it and how I can watch chick Tv for hours but she just doesn't get it.

I guess it's not much different than my DH showing me a video of some "amazing" bike trick or fight move. I'm rarely impressed.

At least my hobby isn't very dangerous and makes food for us!

It's always nice knowing that there are fellow chicken addicts out there.

My family claims that my mom is chicken obsessed too, but none of her chickens have names! Craziness.
