Official Squatch Watchers

There is a big difference. We had a dog (dachshund) who we couldn't housebreak until after we got him "fixed". Also, any chance he got he ran away to find dogs of the female variety. If he kept doing that, he would have eventually been run over because we lived on a busy road. There was also other behavior we couldn't stop (humping everyone).

If you aren't going to breed them, it is better all around.
Poor little guy
 
You're in TX? I need to know what is considered 'freezing' down there. Not judging, but I think it's funny to hear the differences. It was 26 degrees here this morning, mid 40's high, but by Feb people will be wearing shorts w/ sweatshirts and flipflops.

Well, you can, but we'd get 'cleaned'.


I missed this post.

It was probably about 60 ish earlier? :gig:gig
 
You don't need a heat lamp for chickens, BUT if you get them used to it then they depend on the heat and do not tolerate the cold as well. Better off to wean them slowly be using lesser wattage bulbs and gradually cut back.
I use a brooder lamp for Dylan the African Grey every day. It has an 80 watt UV light that puts out a little heat and adds Vitamin D to the indoor bird life. It is securly attached, and not very hot. A low wattage heat lamp can do a lot to improve air circulation and health. There are some that do not emit light that are for reptiles, that I would use if I thought it would help.
 
I have a heat lamp but I had a bunch of people on this site telling me not to use it so I shut it off
It's true you don't need one if the ventilation is good but this is just an opinion but if you are having problems with frostbite then you might want to until you can fix the problem. Just a opinion someone can correct me if I'm wrong
