We were -2 overnight (don't know what the wind chill was) and we're up to 7 degrees now with a LOT of snow coming our way. I'm trying to decide if I should let my flock out for a while today before the blizzard hits, but it's really cold out there! On a happier note, inside the coop it was a balmy 16 degrees overnight! I'm really happy about that, as it had been staying about 10 degrees above the outside temp., but it's true that the colder it gets the wider that gap between inside/outside gets!
Stay warm everyone!
(Guess I need to change my signature - only have 13 chickens now, 11 hens and 2 roos. We butchered the 12 extra roos. We hatched these birds in an incubator and I really, really didn't want to have to butcher any of my babies, but when you hatch them out I guess there's no way around it. We survived the ordeal, and now we know we can do it if we have to.)
