    I too have been thinking about winter problems again. The best thing I have found is a heated dog dish, at the feed store for around 20 I think. It held up better than anything else. Just have to keep plenty of water in it, and thats the other problem! carrying buckets in the snow...Hope others...

    I want to free range (sort of) but have concerns.

    let them roam if you can, my 40 chickens hang around my5 acres and usually stay by the house or the coop.. they always head to the coop by 7 or so.. i have a 100 acre farm that is next to my land, and they have never jumped the fince or gone where i cannot fnd them.
