In the Brooder
Hey guys, my brother is getting ready to put in his first coop and is having a problem figuring out where to locate it on his property. He lives in Alaska and the spot he wants to put the coop doesn't get much if any direct sunlight. In the summer months it will get up to a couple hours of direct sun and winter months none at all. So my question is, do healthy hens need access to direct sunlight? I know my flock loves to bask and take dust baths in direct sun even if the temps are 110+. Thanks in advance!
