Hello,
Our chickens are coming up on their 2nd Winter, and with the warm weather they have experienced the last few months, they have been sleeping in their covered run. I have a roost in their run and in their coop. The run is covered and secure, but only one wall is tarped to break the wind. There is no draft protection. My concern is, when it gets cold again, will they know to go back in the coop where they will be able to stay warm easier? Or do I need to train them to sleep in the coop?
Thanks,
Cat.
