We are in ER. I should run by there. I've always wanted a reason to go in now I have one :)

Anyone else on here hang something over where the birds roost to help Keep them warm? I've seen one online that they called a roost hood. Not a heat source but more like added insulation. I'm curious what your experiences are with something like that if you have. Wondering f it's a good idea...
