Winter Coop Care in Virginia
Dry bedding, ventilation without drafts, and unbroken water: how we winter the flock without tropical heaters.
Heritage birds handle cold better than people expect. Damp and ammonia are the real enemies. Our winter focus is dry litter, smart airflow, and water that isn't a block of ice.
The Beard and Joseph still work the perimeter. Predators get hungrier when the woods go quiet.
Eggs in winter
Lay rates drop with daylight. We don't fake summer with extreme lighting tricks; we keep birds healthy and honest about seasonal supply.
Call ahead in December and January so we can set expectations for your dozen.
