Best Answer

Heated water containers are available for sale. These electric devices have a heater coil embedded within the bottom that maintains a small amount of heat all day and night. You can also use an old water bed heating pad under your water dish but need to be careful about splash and overflow. Keep a system of running water going for the days the temperature is expected to drop well below freezing.

You can also hang your coop heat lamp just above the water container to help slow the formation of ice.

What is the name of hen house?

Well, the name of a hen house is a chicken coop. It’s a place where chickens can live comfortably and lay eggs. Some people like to give their chicken coops fun names like “Banty Shanty” or “The Eggcellent Inn”. Also incase you were wondering the terms “chicken coop” and “hen house” are often used interchangeably, but there are some subtle differences between the two. A chicken coop is a structure that provides shelter for chickens and typically includes nesting boxes and roosts. It can be either stationary or mobile and is usually enclosed with wire mesh to keep predators out. On the other hand, a hen house is a more general term that refers to any structure that houses hens, whether it’s a coop, a barn, or a shed. So, in summary, a chicken coop is a type of hen house, but not all hen houses are chicken coops. I hope that clears things up for you. Is there anything else I can help you with?
