Winter and cold weather is coming, so I need to start planning. I have two chickens, White Leghorn and SLW. To keep the snow and drifts out I will put a clear tarp on their run not only for snow but so i can see them :) But, the bad thing about a tarp is thatit takes away a lot of ventalation, which will be a problem. That will be my biggest problem that I need your guys knowlodge on. Remember, I also have an A frame coop. Anyways, the water will be heated, and they will have lots of bedding in there as well, will put vaseline on WL comb, and nesting box will be in there as well. Thats my plan, anyone else that would like to share or help me is welcome to post.
 
You need to figure out a way to ventilate their area. Maybe you can use a frame of some sort to raise the tarp so there is air between the coop and tarp.
