Today is day 9 of our 30 days of homesteading Q&A on the podcast where I have reached out to some of the best bloggers and podcasters in the homesteading space to answer your questions about homesteading.

Today’s question is “It’s my first year with chickens and wanted some advice on preparing for winter. Is there anything special I need to do for my birds or anything I need to pay special attention to through the winter?”

Answering today’s question is Maat van Uitert from TheFrugalChicken.com. Maat provides us with some great advice about how to get that coop ready for the frigid temps of winter.
