Hi everyone. We are new to chickens. Our girls are currently 5 months old. I'm concerned about their first winter here in central Ohio.
- We live up on a hill where it gets pretty windy. Here is our current set up. It is uninsulated.
- Their window faces west and their roosting bar is on that side of the coop under the window.
- Their door/ramp faces north.
- There's a man door on the southside
- Their exterior mounted nesting boxes are on the east side.
What would you suggest for winterizing their coop and run to keep them happy and healthy this winter? We have already purchased a heated waterer and my husband just ran electric to their coop.
