Chickens wont get water in the snow

You really should get ventilation in there ASAP.... Its not healthy at all for them to not have it. The ammonia build up alone is so very harmful! Not to mention they are exhaling moisture in the air!

I cant add ventilation in this moment but when the snow stops I will, I am a newbie to chickens so I had no idea.

How do I add ventilation, I know its a stupid question but still

They will venture outside when they are thirsty and hungry enough. Mine go on strike and stay in the henhouse the first snow, but I don’t give in (anymore) and bring them water and food. So eventually they grow accustomed to the snow and go outside. Sometimes it’s over a day!

If you would like, post some pictures of your coop on here and people will help you in where it should go. It will make it all the better

Should I put the water in with no heater even with bad (no) ventilation?

During the day with the pop door open. GC

We covered the coop so I cant see them drinking...

Then what made you think they weren't drinking?
