Has anyone started using their's yet? How cold do you let it get before using them normally?

I have not used mine yet for my outdoor buns. They are very hardy and cope pretty well with the cold. I start putting them in at around -5. Their runs have been reinforced with extra bedding and insulation in the meantime and they get extra food and water to see them through as well.

I have been putting one in between the two of them for the last couple of nights as we have had snow I tuck it under a think layer of hay in their bedroom and hope that it will make it all snug! :thumb: When I have put them out during the day they dont sit anywhere near them! :lol:

Thanks all! Have checked the weather for tonight and it isn't going to be minus so I won't start using it until it drops to a minus.

Thanks for advice though!! X

We use them if we're in the minus during the day, as it will get even colder overnight obviously.

I put one in earlier in the day for the first time but with the cover over it it didnt feel very warm at all?
Gonna reheat it for over night though
