There’s four long perches around, a large swing, and I added a dust bath today...

Here's some ideas:

Some pics of your set up might help here.
Do they get any natural light?

Not really during this time of year, unfortunately ... when it’s in the 20’s I’ll open a door by their run. It’s 9 degrees out right now, but 18 degrees inside the stable.

So there's no windows?
Do you have some light in there at all?

No there are no windows.
there are four doors that I leave open weather permitting... and three huge tractor doors, that I leave one open weather permitting. But weather permitting, they are outside in a 25x75 open grass run. We have about three feet of snow right now. Should I leave doors open when it’s so cold and 10 degrees warmer in the stable?
Thank you!!
