It doesn’t have to be freezing outside for your chickens to get frostbite. Moisture and wind chill will do it to them in above freezing temperatures

Frostbite is a real concern with backyard chickens, so what's the best way to prevent it? A well-ventilated, dry coop.

Pennsylvania is mentioned in this article from Premier 1 Supplies. It is time to start winterizing our flock and their living environment. As mentioned in this article, we do not put up the white or clear greenhouse plastic. The noise was too much and the light was too much. The wind hitting the plastic made loud rattling noises versus a UV cloth where the wind can pe*****te better.  when your Chickens experience Winter for the first time, please remember that everything is new to them. They are not going to run out into the snow like you might see online! They are curious by nature and will be cautious to protect themselves

Molting season is upon us! Remember, new pinfeathers or plumage is often painful if touched. Try not to handle your birds too much when they have a large area of pinfeathers starting to come in.
