it made me really aggravated but i finally got a heat lamp for my chickens. it has been really cold here lately and 2 night ago was when i decided that anything under 30 degrees they needed a heat lamp. i got one for them last night because it was 25 degrees outside!!! that is so abnormal for georgia it is very unusual for anything to freeze. the reason i didnt want to get one until it was absolutely necessary is because i have read so many postings on here about dead chickens and burnt coops because the heat lamp will catch the coop on fire. Last night i actually dreamed the coop was on fire and i woke up and looked out the window and everything was ok. i really need reasurance everything will be ok. anyway else using heat lamps? does it work for you
