--- End quote ---

1) less space to move in sheds so not much heat loss
2)insulation in shed against heat loss as weather outside is cold(which could cause heat loss as skin would radiate heat)

I wrote that in the cold, the enzyme activity is slower, so there is slower metabolism. Lol.
But the first one i got right. I wrote less movement, so less excercise, and less weight loss.

1. No Movement So More Energy Can Be Stored Thus Gaining Weight
2. Since It Is Very Cold Outside, They Will Need Much Energy To Maintain a constant body temperature, in the shed it is warm meaning less energy is used and more is stored

Hope This Helps dont forget +rep :)
