In this episode of Mother Earth News and Friends, we discuss the considerations you need to take when keeping chickens during the colder months including diet, shelter, and choosing cold weather breeds.
Joining Charlotte for this conversation is Jeannette Beranger. Jeannette is the Senior Program Manager for The Livestock Conservancy. She uses her knowledge to plan and implement conservation programs, conduct field research, and advise farmers in their endeavors with rare breeds. She is the co-author of the best-selling book “An Introduction to Heritage Breeds.”
