You can also choose to cover your run with a tarp, or roofing if you want to keep some of the snow out of it. Learn more

Caring for Chickens in the Winter

Caring for chickens in the winter isn’t any more work than in the summer, in fact, it might be less.

Water for Your Chickens

In the winter, once the weather drops, I add a thick layer of straw to the bottom of our couple and then add pine shavings.

Keep the coop ventilated, even in winter. You should not notice any odor of ammonia. If you do, add more litter.
