For our chickens.. We put plastic on the back side of the coop and windows. We use a heat lamp on a timer for the coldest day/nights. Heat lamp comes on w the timer. On one hour,,,off for two, depending on the low temp . No need to keep it on all night or day. Not in NH anyway. It helps to have birds that are hearty for colder weather. We go with heritage birds like NH reds,Buff orpington ect. Its better to have birds that have smaller combs so they dont get frost bite as easy. When the snow gets to deep they tend to stay “inside” They have a large indoor run Attached to the coop so they can get “out”. We use a heated water keeper to stop their water from freezing. We converted our now grown children’s swing set into a chicken coop. Its the type that looks like a fort. The fort area is the chickens coop. Roost and egg boxes. The run extents from under the “fort to where the swings were. The run is enclosed in chicken wire and screened in. We plastic the screened area in the winter to keep the snow out.
