I add pepper to my chickens food in the coldest days, bc I know it contributes to body heat.. black pepper or red pepper flakes.
This past winter we had lots of days that were -20 and stayed. Wow, Colorado is not used to that. A couple of my girls lost toe joints on their lateral toes, poor things, but combs were ok. Sure was glad I had heat lamps for them!
