    Yeah I’ve been reading and YouTubing just to prepare for winter. And I THINK if I’ve got the coop ventilated but no major drafts, frostbite should be less of a worry. Right?

    I’d be concerned about the execution..how on earth would I get them on the chickens?? Don’t worry no chickens clothes. I haven’t crossed over into THAT crazy, and I have full faith that y'all will most definitely stop me. Buuuut what about frostbiten combs? No hats either?
