If you go to Homebase you can get daylight bulbs(blue colour) that give the correct light they are about £2.50 ;)

check out the BHW advert of boddy&ridewood new flouresent tubes which emit uv rays good for birds but do we now need our sunglasses in the loft........................ ;D ;D ;D. and far more expensive than homebase.

Is there anwhere on the intenet where I can find a good article on the hows and whys of this system. My loft's out in the sticks with no electric but my partner has his in his garden and has often said he'd like to try it but never been able to find solid information on the system

Thanks

No I don't have a dimmer at the moment as its broke.All I do is have the light on from 3.00am till 8.00am from weaning to end of May.If you do the system the birds must have either a proper sunrise or sunset as I have heard of birds being out all night.It depends when you let your youngbirds out.

If you want any more info.PM me

Cheers :)
