I'm in the Midwest. Wisconsin, to be exact. its not uncommon to have negative temps, even a "polar vortex" of -40F in winter, and 90F in summertime.

if you're in a climate such as mine, how do you house your silkies? this will be my first year having them apart from my LF/feathered birds.

insulation? no insulation? summer outdoors/winter indoors?
 
Hopefully you get some experienced responses; my silkie got rehomed when 'she' crowed. From my investigations at the time, they should be pretty resilient to most anything the other birds can handle EXCEPT if they get wet in the cold. They need to be protected from being wet and cold.
