Ugh. I'm guessing all are as sick of this COLD as I am! First-time chicken-keeper here and have a question: My 11 chickens are about a year old, they free range when it's nice out. They have a coop/run area that's about 144 square feet. It is dry. They have food and heated water. There are two - very secure - timed, heat lamps (w/ safety cage) on the ceiling in the run. They have a heated roost for night. Oh, and there's a radio for them playing classic country. With the super cold temps, I have NOT let them out - mainly because I want to keep them dry. I've not seen any major picking - yet. Do you all let yours out when it's this cold? For the love of God, can we please get some warmer weather?!??
