As this is our first winter with chickens there were a lot of things we did not know coming into the season. Would the watering system work? Would the newly installed plastic greenhouse surrounding the coop hold up in strong wind and cold? Would the water heater keep the chicken water from freezing? Would the LED lights we set on timers provide enough light to keep the chickens laying eggs through the winter? So many questions, and it was not that long ago that we didn't have the answers to any of them. But, now, at the end of January, we can answer them all pretty well.
