Lovely birds. At what temperature do they start becoming stressed? And do you think they would need much more than a fan and an insulated building in heat?
Also I've read this breed is more subject to Mareks. Has anyone found that to be true?
Thank you.
"It is almost impossible to put younger birds with adult Hedemoras. I keep a separate grow out pen next to their main pen so they can get to know each other and I also let them free range together. Once they reach adult hood they can be integrated like any other breed."

I know there aren't a lot of breeders out there, but hopefully, some will share their experiences and knowledge. This is a breed I have wanted since the first time I laid eyes on them but felt the weather here wouldn't be suitable for them.
