    Most bestest free ranging chicken?

    I know most breeds will free range. I've had chickens for a while and grew up with em too. Leghorns are the best free ranging chickens I've had though. Just didn't know if there's any other breed that does it better.

    Check out my new SE Texas coop design. Opinions welcome

    How you gonna close the coop up to protect from cold winds and or blowing rain? I don't like hardware clothe, I use welded wire. Much stronger. Seems like enough for 5 to 6 birds max. Not enough space for more. The more space the better. Everyone has different ideas of what's best...

    Advice needed. Time sensitive.

    Chickens don't get cold easily. They are fine in the teens.... its cold wind drafts and getting wet and cold that will kill em. Protect from the wind and rain. They are find buried in snow and with snow on the ground.
