First time keeping chickens, I have three buff orps in a coop in the garage that are going to be sent out to the run when complete.

Thanks I will have more pictures up soon. Thinking about moving them outside this week but not sure if the colorado weather will be too much for them.

No problem there, just run a leg out from your heat pump unit.
