Nice job! Have to ask..how are your girls laying in the cold..still getting eggs? Can't quite tell by the photos, but are those Sexlinks? If so, I'm guessing they are laying. WELCOME!

Thank you for joining us at Backyard Chickens. Nice coop, think they would like a window to look out. Do you have any ventilation (grills or ???) under the roof?

The coop has two windows and there is ventilation ports at the top of the shed.

They were laying well up until about a month ago. But the flock had some drama starting in december with a couple straight run roosters that matured. Egg production fell off for the last month or so. The roosters have since departed our flock and eggs are starting to show back up. I imagine they will kick back in over the next month or two as it warms up. There are some sexlinks, and reds, a leghorn and I can't remember the name of the white ones for the life of me. Also a couple golden laced wyandottes in there somewhere.
