Hi all, we have a cold spell in upstate NY and I'm just concerned about my 5 chickens. They have a raised coop that fits them comfortably, it has some thin insulation and has pine shavings for bedding. I have a little heat screen in there but you can only feel warmth off of it if you are literally standing right next to it. My chickens are EE, BO, and Isa Brown (my biggest concern because she is petite and not puffy like the BO's). The temperature in the coop reads 0 degrees but it may be lower due to my temp. Guage not reading below 0. It could be warmer in there if I didn't have to open the door to the run but that is where the food and water is.. Attached is a photo of the wind chill advisory for today. Their combs appear fine although the Isa has a couple very little black specks near the tips...any suggestions or even just reassurance would be appreciated! This is their third winter...
