New pullets and huge storm

[keesmom]

I will be keeping mine locked up for the storm. I know they won't go out, and I don't want to trudge out in heavy snow and wind to lock them up.

Nice roofed run!!
How big is coop itself?
Where are you located?
Good luck in the storm!

Funny be the run isn't roofed - yet. The snow wasn't falling through the mesh so I went inside with my leaf blower and blew it off. I do plan on putting a roof on the this spring though.

The coop is 4x4 with two nesting boxes around back.

I'm in northern New Jersey and the latest numbers are reaching 2 feet!

Yeah I've had that look too, just knocked it off with a shovel from inside.

You've probably accounted for this, but are the pullets already acclimated to ambient temperatures? A heated water fount is really helpful in these cold temps to make sure they have access to liquid water.
