DO CHICKENS NEED HEAT IN THE WINTER? YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED!

What happens here

The outdoor run is 8x8 feet, providing an additional 64 square feet of space for the chickens. When there's no snow, the chickens are allowed to free-range around the garden. Supplemental feeding includes table scraps such as apple peelings, apple cores, and pickled beets, which chickens generally love and act as natural waste disposals.

Goal: Provide outdoor access and supplement diet with kitchen waste
