Hi everyone, I'm new to this group and am wondering if I can use an old steel grain bin as a chicken coop. I live in North Dakota and we are still getting into the 30's at night. This has been a cold and slow start to spring here this year! I am thinking it would be easier to keep the chicks warm in the grain bin. I was thinking of running electricity to it and hang a heat lamp for the times it is on the cool side. It has a top vent and I was thinking of making a screened door using chicken wire in case it got too warm.
Any input on this idea?
thanks so much,
Terri
