Hi Don, I use my garage for cooling here in central TX. This year I am happy that it has been on the cool side. One thing I was wondering...some people prefer a gradual warm up and wait before feeding. Do you think setting them up with a hot spot of say 80 degrees from day one and offering food soon after is just as OK as it is to warm them gradually? Nature runs the show here at my place as far as temps go and the past 2 seasons I did not have temps drop as much as I would have preferred, yet I produced oodles of eggs so I really don't sweat it. Still wondering if I am prolonging things a little by not literally warming them up faster as oppopsed to the gradual warm up and waiting a bit before feeding? I also feed one undersized food item to get the disgestive system up n running before feeding a large meal. Is this standard or have you tried feeding a lot right away as soon as they warm up?
