Yesterday we had a snow/ice storm so the girls were "cooped" up all day. Today I let them out into their run, after shoveling out their run that is...(thanx DH!) It started to rain this afternoon & the girls didn't go & hide under the coop like they usually do, they were apparantly too busy scratching around in the leaves I had put down. Now 7 of them are looking pretty wet & soggy. Its going to be down into the teens tonight, do you think the girls will be ok or should I give them some heat for a little while to dry out??? Now I'm worried about how damp it will be in their coop & we have a cold snap comming this weekend. I haven't given them any supplemental heat yet this winter & I didn't plan to either.
So should I put on some heat via a lamp or just leave them wet?
