Hi All!
This is our first winter with chickens, we are in New Hampshire and are going to be getting into the single digits next week overnight. So far our 4 girls have been doing great in the dipping temps! And still laying consistently. So here’s my question- We have them in our large two story barn (unheated) with attached run with roof. I’ve been seeing a ton about ventilation of smaller coops but not barns. Should I be keeping the top of the door open overnight? (Stall style door) or is it large enough that I don’t need anything extra? I keep the door open all day unless it’s super windy and close up at night. They still like to go out but should I be keeping them inside in low temps? Their roost is against the wall away from the door. Any insight or advice would be great! Thanks so much
