The more feeders, the better. I feed fermented feed, and I serve it up in nine dog bowls for twenty-three chickens. Watching them eat is like watching a game of musical chairs at a kids' birthday party. They constantly chase one another away from the bowls, but everyone ends up getting enough to eat.
Chickens will go out into the snow as long as they see something interesting to scratch around for. You need to "salt" the snow with interesting stuff such as BOSS, meal worms, leaves, straw. Like kids, chickens require incentive.
