Hi everyone!
I wanted to ask about the cold weather and my chickens. I have 10 approx 6 month old chickens here in Texas. Our weather here is really crazy and I'm wondering if my chicks that are used to warmer temps will be ok in the cold? (Tonight it's supposed to be down to 28) I've filled their coop with a good amount of wood shavings and hay, as I was told by the guy at the tractor supply store that hay would help to keep them warm. I'm also supplementing their feed with scratch to give them something to "work for" and help to keep them warm in the winter. Just wondering about everyone's thoughts and suggestions!
Take care!
Neil
