Get Ready for Cooler Weather
November is here and winter is on its way, bringing chilly rains and, for some, ice and snow.
To prepare your poultry for the winter months, we suggest reading Harvey Ussery’s article, Getting Ready for Winter. Harvey is the author of the Small-Scale Poultry Flock.
If you’re looking for winter-tolerant birds, look into the Chantecler breed. It was developed in Canada. And Wyandottes (in photo above) have handled our sub-zero Iowa winters quite well.
