Need coop add on suggestions!!

Good ventilation makes insulation mostly moot...and there are many cons, rodent housing, chickens eating insulation, etc.

Heating a coop is usually not necessary unless you have temps well below zero 24/7 for more than a few days.

You might find some guidance here:

Tho I don't often get into singles or below, I've found periodic electrolytes can really help:

Good to know, thank you much. I will read these. You’re definitely not wrong about rodent housing, those dang freeloaders. Had no idea electrolytes help in winter, thanks!

Yes, dehydration can happen in cold weather too.
