The past 24 hours have been really cold, at temps of -20°C (-4°F). I have 3 hens in a relatively cozy coop, meaning they generate enough heat to keep the coop at a decent temperature. Their door is open during the day so they can go out into the run if they need to (they have chosen to stay mainly inside today) However, the forecast says the temperature will be around this low for the next few days. I’m wondering if I should heat the coop over that period, or let my birds sit it out? They’re cold hardy breeds with thick plumage, so they’ve been ok at least for today. If I should heat my coop, what’s the best option for heating? Thanks
