Hi!

Check out the Coops section for lots of good ideas, some really cute coops on there! https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/2/Coops You can usually make a much better coop than you can buy for the same price, you might really like to take a look at pallet coops, they are usually made from reclaimed/ recycled wood and can be as plain for fancy as you want. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/550804/pallet-chicken-coop-ideas
Chickens are really really cold tolerant, as long as they have a dry draft free place they will usually be fine, you just need to be sure there is plenty of ventilation. Some great articles
