Is there a thread about keeping chickens in cold weather? Ontario peeps you feelin' me? Just want some advice on making sure my chickens make it through the winter. My boyfriend got worried when it got minus -3C in the coop the other night. It is well insulated and we have an air exchanger installed. And a water heater so the water doesn't freeze.
I have heard that we should not add a heating source because if there is a power outage the chickens won't be acclimatized. So does that mean they can be in -30CELCIUS temps? Cuz that's what it gets here. Actually last year we made it into colder!
