roebuck220 80 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I have 1 set at about that height and its fine but not a lot of heat off this 1 but it keeps everything dry and warm under it but not hot. check how warm the floor is after it has been on a while, depends how old they are as well. mine is a red bulb with 2 settings on it not sure what make or strength of bulb 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

foxdropper 17,092 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Make sure the pups can get away from the heat too mate .Its a common misunderstanding that they require heat 24 -7 .I never use one myself . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
beast 1,884 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 yep, you need to put the lamp at one end of the kennel and set it up so the pups can crawl away if they want. if they are still with the dam they shouldnt really need extra heat at this time of year Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigdan 11 Posted September 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2016 yeah still with the dam I'm only putting it on at night for them 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
