Strange you asked this question. Yesterday morning I looked out the kitchen window at the coop and saw smoke billowing out of the windows! I ran up and the coop was filled with dense acrid smoke. I had a heat lamp in one section for my youngsters since it's been 28* lately. I guess they got rambunctious and knocked it off the support and it set the bedding on fire. That in turn burned an area about 9x15 out of the floor board, part or a wall stud and floor beam.
The smoke killed 16 of my 18 young ones. My 7 older girls are ok. They were all groggy from the dense smoke but today seem ok.
I had no time to deal with them today but in the morning I'll collect them up and will put them on my burn pit.
