We have had a relatively mild winter (WV) with temps in the 20s and 30s at night or higher. The temps have dropped into single digits the past two nights, wind chill below zero. Two of the chickens ended up with frost bite. I have had a heat lamp in the house, i use it ehen it drops below 30. I have been building a deep bedding but will be adding to it now. I am also going to make adjustments to improve the ventilation. This is my first winter with chickens. Any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated! Is there anything i can do to help heal and or prevent frostbite?
