I live in Prince George BC Canada and am in the process of building my chicken mansion. I’ve never had any chickens before and am looking forward to get going. It’s gonna be chilli in the winter so hopefully I’m doing everything right.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Are you adding lots and lots of ventilation? Like to the tune of 1 sq ft per bird? And giving them plenty of space inside the coop? 4 sq ft of floor space and 1 linear foot of roost space per bird?
Keep it DRY and keep drafts off of roosted birds and have plenty of ventilation and the birds will do very well.

Hope the construction of your chicken mansion is going well. Chicken keeping during the frigid months does have its challenges, but it's doable.

Welcome to BYC, where you will find lots of friendly folks who want to help you succeed with your venture!
