Well I'm still confused about insulation. I live in an open area in northern New Hampshire where it is not uncommon for winter tempertures to drop to -20F. and the wind to blow at 30MPH. I have had many flocks of chickens in the past with uninsulated coops, but that was in southern New Hampshire in a wooded area. I did have to deal with some frostbite problems on very cold nights. I have read many excellent posts on this subject but cannot seem to come up with a definative answer. I am planning to build a coop and get some chicks this spring after about 20 years without any chickens. Any help out there? Thanks!!
