Does anyone use a dehumidifier in the coop during the winter?

With wind chill and daily temps being below freezing and for several days in a row here in KY... I'm keeping everyone inside the coop. Of course, that means feeding and using, unheated water bowls, inside the coop. Does/can anyone use a dehumidifier inside the coop to reduce the moisture from poo?

Good ventilation will remove the moisture. Our gut reaction to cold temperatures is close up the coop as tight as possible, but that's a bad idea. You want air movement without drafts. We always have a south facing door or window open.

I'd recommend you cutting some peak vents in your barn, that will definitely help.
