We are all entering winter and cold. There was a thread about snow and there was 75 posts or so to it. Getting too long and too many little talks about things other than snow. Something that interested me was Authenticfarm and Heda talking about their thermocubes and having them set to come on at temperatures colder than -17.
We are not yet in the deep cold, last winter we only dipped to -17, but the winter before it went down to -21. My birds are single combed birds. The combs are pretty big on the males. Didn't have frostsbite last year, but did have it the prior year and I don't want to repeat. Seems that colder than -17, then frostbite become apparent. Still can't get used to the cold winter, coastal BC, from where we came is mild, average winter temperature is about 5 C and this is coldish. Yes, can get well below zero there and snowy, but the average is above freezing.
Preparing thoughts for winter readying and would like to hear about thermocubes, what they do, how they heat, and well, just tell about them please, and pictures and approximate prices...have a beautiful day, CynthiaM.
