Oh good idea. Yeah i type faster than i think. Sorry. I'm currently in Maine and have been for a few months shy of 8 years. I'm a La native and am going back in October. Stopping in Texas for some time where my parents are.
Because. I hate 8 month long winters. And bugs that suck all your blood.

@Snakebiteholloway just so you know I got what you meant

I cover windows with plexiglass or plastic sheeting to allow light inside the coop during the winter.

Of course duh, plastic sheeting! Why am I making this so complicated???

Didn't you say your windows were glass?
No need for Plexi or plastic sheeting then.

1/2" hc on the inside or outside depending how you want to open them.

Does it ever repair itself? Or frostbite forever?

Oh, so you don't need to cover them in the winter. Glass is just fine.
