Mary's Backyard Chickens
Songster
Okay, winter is coming and I'm not ready, and I don't think my chickens are either......
Last winter they wouldn't come out of the coop at all.... They were shivering and looked like they were going to freeze to death! Of course, I am not able to keep chickens inside my house, because that's too much to handle, plus cleaning up all the poo. This is the question: WHAT SAYS BYC? How do I keep my flock warm in winter? I just don't want them to be freezing cold in winter! Our chicken's legs are already shivering, I can't imagine how bad it will be in winter! So, does anyone here know tips or tricks to keep chickens warm in winter? I know there are a whole bunch of chicken experts out there who can answer this question in a snap... Any replies help! Thank you all!
