    I unintentionally broke leg of my one and only 2 months old broiler white chicken, the bone of her leg is pierced through her flesh, i am feeling souch sorry and depressed for her.. i applied whatever medicine i had in home and applied very stiff band aid on the bone of her leg, ( i tested for pain by pinching by my nails in her feet by testing the palm of her feet, it seems though her bone is broken bout feet of her leg is active by her nerves.. ( I'm definitely sure she ain't gonna heal her leg whatever i do, and i also i live in a very very small village,not any veterinary available anywhere near my Village, I'm feeling very very sad for what i did to my chicken.😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

    Does the prima lamp use a different bulb than the cheaper, metal non-prima riskier lamps? It would seem like there'd be some similar risk if they use the same kind of lamp because the bulbs in the cheap riskier ones may have moisture caught in the bulbs or something that may contribute to why they cause problems, or combust. And I experienced this also myself. In my experience, the cheaper riskier metal version exploded, probably from something in the bulb, and I was lucky I was there to catch it when it happened or it would have been bad. So how is the bulb in these different? It would have to be different for there to be different risk.
