I live in central Mass and have had chickens for several years now. Two of my 3 coops are insulated and I've never had so much as a frozen comb (and I've had some BIG roosters in the past!). I cover the runs with plastic so they have some more "moving around" space and all is fine. As long as there are no drafts and there is adequate ventilation (I just have sections cut out of the wall near the roof covered with 1/2" HW cloth) they should be fine. These openings are open year round irregardless of weather. My silkie coop is only partially insulated and believe it or not those dopes prefer the "un"insulated section during the winter. Go figure
