I would like to begin to prepare for the winter.
I have bought straw for bedding and the ground around the coop.
I've secured the pen which houses the coop with wind barriers. The material allows the sun to beam through. The coop is vented and the pen is vented as well.
I bought a light fixture, but now that I've read many replies about light and the results from it, I won't use it. I originally thought a caged light would be a source of heat.
All I have left to think about is the winter feed.
I also bought a heated fountain. Again, a tip from this marvelous site.
Thank you everyone for your good information and generous sharing.
