ChirpyChirpyCheepCheep Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Hello everyone Very cold and blizzard like here. OH and I have had to create a make shift wind barrier for the chooks. The wind is blowing through their run and building up inside. Starting to think I should bring Ronnie and Roxie in this evening. They are in there. . . Honest. . .

scrambledhead Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I'm sure they are fine, my Eglu looks much the same and my girls seem happy enough just a bit bored as they can't rampage through the garden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emchook Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I am getting very dirty looks when I go and give them treats and check their water and DONT let them out ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 ChirpyChirpyCheepCheep they will be fine, don't worry. My lot are snowed in too and refuse to come out of the run, even if I leave it open for hours they just won't come out. I've put my plastic garden table over the eglu so that the snow doesn't freeze the egluport and I can get in their to retrieve eggs. Looks like Angels4 has had similar idea looking at his picture...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saronne Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I would have thought that a layer of snow on top of the eglu would provide extra insulation. Saronne x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
