Are these chickens able to handle the cold like i mean iowa cold ?

 

[Fred's Hens]

I've kept two different sexlink strains and both endured the winters up here, just fine. I don't mean to suggest they love it when the temps fall below zero, but they did just fine. These sexlinks typically aren't heavily feathered, but they manage OK. Keep them dry, well fed and watered and they'll be fine. And lay well too!
