It was -6 this morning when I left for work. We should get to 13 above today. Tonight is supposed to drop down to at least -10, with -20 wind chills. There's at least 8 inches of snow on the ground. (we got 10 inches on Monday)
Our coop stays around 0 when it gets that cold. We have the heat lamp on and the heater base for their water, so it never freezes. The eggs they laid over the weekend (when we had a high of 4 degrees) all froze and cracked. They are also laying fewer these past few days. Can't say I blame them!
This weekend we're supposed to get into the upper 20's, so that will feel like summer!
These ladies have had it rougher with the temps this low, I'm looking forward to spring when they can run around in the grass and eat bugs again!
