First time having chickens my hens are about 30 weeks old and only one of the three of them are laying. Does anyone know why I live in the Okanagan in BC Canada. About a week and a half ago my black copper Marain laid one egg and has yet to lay another one. Is this normal????
Oh yes she's raising one right now From chick. They're very cute. We're new at this so were just trying to learn what's best. So any and all advice is more than welcome. I will pass the message onto her. Thank you
Ok thank you i have never put heat in their coop there all winter tolerable chickens this is their first winter. Here it gets to about below 20 to 30. But right now it's only sitting around -7. But all winter hardy chickens. One more thing do you let then out in the yard in the winter?
I live in the okanogan in BC Canada and we get about 3 feet or so of snow. Do you need to put heat lamps in my chicken coop. It's not 100% sealed off. But I was told not to because you don't want your chickens to sweat in the winter. What would you suggest??
