Right now I have my 10 chickens in a 12x12 run with a coop attached to one side. The run is uncovered and we have been getting some rain lately. The temp is not bad...probablly in the mid 40's but certainly not to the freezing point yet. (I'm in SC) My question is: Will the chickens getting rained on hurt anything?....the birds themselves or egg production? They have the option to stay in the coop where it's dry, but for some reason they like being in the rain..? Dont know why, but they like it.
Thoughts on this please. Thanks.
