HI
this is my first winter with my chickens. The inside coop is nice and warm and at night (on the super cold nights) i put hot water bottles underneath the hay to warm up their feet.
They are outside right now but it is -20 below with the windchill. Should i be worried? should i lock them inside? Will they go in on their own if they are too cold?
I put vaseline on their combs, they have plenty of fresh water and food.
Am I worrying too much?
Thanks for any input!
