We live in central Alberta. Our winters are on ave -20oC (-4oF) but we can get down to -35oC (-31oF). I was reading lots of posts and it seems like most people are saying that ventilation and draft proofing are more important than insulation. But I couldn't find any posts from Alberta.
We are looking to build a large coop again. Roughly 10-15 ft by 30ft. Maybe bigger. I'd like to get multiple breeds, but I "think" I should separate them in the coop. But again, not quite sure. If we have enough birds they'll keep it nice and warm. But again for such a large coop we're wondering if we can save $ and do no insulation.
Many thanks for all your input.
