We've had a heater on in our chicken coop. They would probably be fine without it because we haven't let them outside in the snow/sleet/rain we've had in the past 2 weeks. If they leave their chickens outside in Texas and they get wet they'll freeze to death below 20 degrees. Some local farmers couldn't get all their dairy cows in in the blizzard of '78 and some of them got frozen udders. I don't think beef cattle or hogs care about cold down to -20 or so unless they get wet. But they aRe less efficient at putting on weight.
Fruits and vegetables are wiped out.
Food is going to be more expensive because there will be less available.
