Last night at 8pm, my coop temperatures were 16F.
I removed the late layers eggs, they felt cool to the touch.
Once inside, I took their temps.
38 to 42F...
Well above the 28F freezing point.
My birds wake up at 5:30am.
This morning 7:45am, coop temps were 14F, and had been 14F since 10:30 last night.
Once inside, I took the eggs temps.
44 to 51F... probably still retaining some heat from the hens.
Unlike last year, we had a relatively warm December, and this is the first week with daytime temps much below freezing.
