    Once again I am way behind. I'll be the voice of (semi) reason. If you haven't already decided, I'd say if you really must have one, then wait till next spring. Everything will be working for you . ie weather , the ability to integrate with more space, etc

    I have one of those heat plates set up wall mounted behind their coop perch connected to a thermo-cube that turns on @ 32F or 0C. That way if they are cold they can find heat but otherwise they are at outside temps.

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    You can frequently find eggs per year info. I'm guessing the lower the number in a heritage breed the longer lived they might be ?? I'm also guessing any hatchery breed bird is going to be geared towards production :mad:
