I have 9 chickens.
2 are about a year old.
1 is about 5 months old
6 are 3 months old.
I have a 10x10 run attached to my coop-I built a custom roosting bar with a heat lamp above it.
the heat lamp is NOT inside the coop-not near the coop. But it’s going to be in the mid 20s tomorrow night and I’m worried about my 3 month olds and the 5 month old.
Do you think they’ll be fine inside the coop which has minimal draft? Or should I leave the coop door open so they can go on the roosting bar and sit under the lamp if they get cold?
I do not want to run the heat lamp all winter. I know they’re not safe. And I don’t want them to get accustomed to it. What do you guys think?
