    If you're really worried move them in the garage, its only one night or so. A -30 wind chill is a -30 draft. That's way to cold. A small coop is actually good for winter as the hens have less space to heat but drafts toss that plus out the window. Thanks for the heads up on the weather too...

    As long as there is no draft to chill the hens you should be fine. You can always add the bulb just in case. The added light at night might bother them. Mine roost on a shelf and huddle to stay comfy. Sometimes my silkie cross will roast on the ground plank all by herself. One tough little...

    Can ducks have soup?

    Ducks are omnivores. Is this soup from a can or "soup" made just with what you listed (giblet/tortilla/veggies). https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/242460/the-ultimate-list-of-duck-treats-and-supplements

    "Newbie" with some questions

    The question is do you want drakes (males) in your flock of hens (females). You don't need drakes unless you want a predator "decoy" or babies. If you want drakes then 1 drake to your whole flock is fine. When you have more than 1 drake then the ratio applies or if you're a breeder. Its to...
