Hello everyone: I am concerned about one of my Wyandotte ladies. She has started to molt and it is cold outside -- into the 30s-40s at night. So far she still has feathers to cover her, but I have seen pictures in this forum of girls with NO FEATHERS (maybe a few). I have a small coop and close the door and window at night, leaving a second window open for ventilation. There is no place to put insulation and leave room for the chickens. I have read other posts about people not heating their coops in even colder states, but I guessed the chickens were full feathered...not naked. Should I consider keeping her in the house until she at least has pin feathers?
Thanks for your thoughts.
