Oh that is cold.
This is our first winter with chickens & ducks & I am trying to figure out whether I need to heat my coop or not. So much info on not heating, which makes sense to me, but what does the average Canadian poultry keeper do? I am leaning towards an insulated coop with the option of a heater for those lovely -20 and lower days.
What type of heater do you all use?
I use a heat lamp chained and definitely secured safety..Oh that is cold.

My coop is really small and could not use heat lamp. Needed a space saver.View attachment 1935550 I use two cozy coop flat panel heaters. Only 200 watts. Safe to touch.

Welcome! Do you have chickens? Or in the planning stages?
Ok so I had a really hard time choosing between these and heated roosts, I ended up going with the roosts not too sure why I made that decision lol but that’s what I have, we’ll see how it goes this winter!View attachment 1935550 I use two cozy coop flat panel heaters.
