Temps have been well below zero for days now wind chill below zero for over a week. My one hen is very skinny and comb very pale to the point it's almost white. My run is covered and sides also cover in plastic with 1 foot on top open all around for ventilation. Their house has proper ventilation as well. She has access to homemade suet, flock block, oatmeal with mealworms in the morning, feed and water. I am considering bringing her inside with other chicken ( recovering from hawk attack) for a short time to see if the warmth and some tlc will help. Question is has anyone else had this happen during a time of extreme cold? Or should I be looking for another cause?
