they are talking 14 tomorrow night. I think I should put some shavings in there tonight when I get home. They just don't go on the roosts, one is really low and they just ignore it. Sometimes they will sit on it if they are up before I let them out, or maybe during the day, but never at night.
I'm going to worry, that's just me. I was on a silkie page on facebook and someone said it's going to be a hard winter on the birds. I'm going to get a big thing of shavings today at TSC. My coop isn't good for the deep litter because of the doors.
I don't know where you are at, but lots of folks on my side of the country reported earlier than normal molts. My horses got their winter coats in a bit early, too.
I like to give some scratch at night and I always up the protein in the winter to help them stay warmer.
Where's the silkie page on FB?
