Then don't complain about you birds being ugly when you don't care to heat them. Maybe you should stay out in the brutal cold all night and see how you like it when people complain about you!!!!

I have lived in Winconsin but didn't have chickens at the time. At that temperature heating them should be a priority.

They’re literally wearing down coats

If they have a proper roost bar, they cover their feet with the down

I don't think someone who is not willing to heat a coop will be knitting chicken hats anytime soon

I debated felt ones for my males. Bit I would have to glue them to the feathers and if it got wet it would be even worse than their comb getting wet on its own

Uhhhh… y’all literally barged onto the haters thread so yeah, it WAS asked for because that’s literally what the entire thread is for.

Uh, does that mean I barged in too? I asked some questions I wasn't a bother was I? If so I didn't mean to be.
