    Vents in the coop are important especially in winter.

    • @thetielife
      @thetielife  2 роки тому

      Yes! The floorboards are wood and off the ground so we’ve got good ventilation for the winter!

    Q: What is the absolute coldest a chicken can stay alive in this weather?

    • @thetielife
      @thetielife  3 місяці тому

      I would say anything under -20 warrants a heater. Insulated coop is a must as well

    Canada is the 2nd largest country in the world, we have tundra, coniferous rainforest, scrublands. What part of Canada are you in? This kind of context is everything.

      Really depends on where you’re located. Prices are going to vary significantly. Best thing to do is start your hunt with a wish list of wants for your property. Good luck! You won’t regret leaving the city!

    @nicolawhite129 2 роки тому +1

    -8 C is not extreme cold. You should not use any heating. You're making your chickens weak and dependant on the heat.

    • @thetielife
      @thetielife  2 роки тому

      It was -20 actually! Yes we learned our lesson, no more heat for the chickens!

  • @RAYOFSONLITE

    Keep aneye on your hens backs. Too many roosters to hen ratio can hurt the hens. You could divide tbe living space. Untill you want hens to have chicks.
