Hi Everyone!
I hear we are in for another cold spell-
My chickens did ok through the last one- but I was thinking of that camping trick, where you heat up a rock in a fire and then it stays warm for a few hours-
Would there be a reason not to do this, put a heated rock in the coop at night to warm things up just a bit? I would only do it if we had really low temps over many nights, as they do seem to be ok in the cold (only one night did I see them huddled together)
Thanks!
Susan
