We are having crazy cold here in Northern Wisconsin. I have 5 hens. They have a nice coop, insulated, ventilated. Today was -27 and it stayed 13 in there. They have a heated water dish and have still been laying. But we are supposed to have even colder temps, record-breaking, in the next week or two and I'm worried. I have a 72 watt light bulb in there that I have had running 24-7 because it throws off a little heat, but that's all I have for heat. I was just brainstorming and was wondering about putting in a Himalayan salt lamp overnight? That way it throws off a little heat but not a bright light so they can sleep. Sounds odd, I know! Open to any ideas. Thank you!
