More Winter Eggs Naturally: What I Do for My Chickens

Can your chickens keep laying through winter without adding a light to the coop? My hens usually keep laying with very little slowdown, and in this video I’ll show you what I do for my flock when the days get shorter and the nights get colder. I’ll walk you through what I feed them, how I keep their drinking water from freezing, and how I keep fresh air moving through the coop without a draft blowing across the roost. I’ll also share a few simple things I use here on our homestead, like serving their regular feed as a warm mash and using dry fall leaves as bedding that later goes into the compost pile. And if your egg count drops suddenly, I’ll show you what I check first. If you’re raising chickens or figuring out how to produce more food on the space you have, I teach how we do it on our half-acre in my Small Acreage Homesteading course.
