Farmers have an important role of looking after their animals, particularly during cold weather. Farm and “pet” animals need specialized assistance to remain warm and well during cold-weather months, just as children need warm coats and blankets.
Animals can’t throw on a sweater or hop under layers of blankets the way humans can. They rely on farmers to keep them warm.” Other animals have fur or feathers, but that’s not always sufficient when it gets extremely cold. It’s why farmers go to great lengths to provide warm, safe quarters for their animal friends.
Special heating, which directs the warmth directly onto the floor and the animals, is one of the best means of keeping animals warm. Think of a large, invisible blanket of warmth in the whole barn! This heating is very intelligent if it does not lose energy. Like humans with heavy drapes on windows to retain heat, producers can place special coverings on walls to contain the warm air.
Chickens are particularly affected by cold. They are unable to produce their own body heat like humans can, so they require supplemental help. Special heaters might resemble large, warm lamps that beamed heat directly at the chickens. These heaters keep the tiny birds warm and healthy, even when it’s freezing outside.
Others have stoves designed to burn compressed wood chips, known as pellets. This is not any wood it is the left over wood pieces and plant materials. They make lots of heat, the pellet stoves, and they're better for the environment. They can heat many of the structures on the farm, making it more affordable to keep animals warm.
Some farmers have an even more exciting secret - they install pipes of hot water underneath the barn floor. Kind of like a large heating pad for the whole barn! Animals feel at home from their feet up with a warm floor. It helps keep animals warm, and stay healthy in the cold months.
When animals are warm, they stay healthy, eat more, and grow better. Farm animals, like children, need certain things in order to feel good — if they are warm, they want to remain warm. Farmers understand that caring for their animals comes down to ensuring that they are warm, fed, and safe.
