All good advice. Will have to check out that post/website suggested. When we winterize our old house, we'll have to do the same to the coop. I just want to be sure they'll be okay when it gets really cold, espeically the ones that were half pecked clean in their former (overcrowded) coop at a neighbors. Thanks for the tips about the water, too. I have a couple heated dog dishes; I think I'll clean one up good and stick it out there. I have 7 chickens and a 10 box brooder dealy, so there's plenty of room for each to nestle in, but there's also plenty of roost space on the brooder and their roost, so I think they'll be okay if I can get them to get along. The new chickens I got are NOT friendly...maybe have to remove the crabby one, but that's a whole other issue for a different topic!
