Windows and awning outside at back. My husband is not a carpenter but he really went to work designing and building all these additions to make the chickens safe and comfortable. He didn't want rain blowing in on them and getting the inside wet. And to think he couldn't understand why I wanted to raise a bunch of nasty chickens - now he really is glad we have them.

inside front window covered in hardware cloth with latch to keep open on windy days

dogwire around bottom of outside edges - should have been hardware cloth but will keep out most large animals. It's buried in concrete so not easy to re-do

A second pic of same window. Window on other side of house looks the same.

This is one of the open windows in the fully open position.

My husband added a wooden knob at the top to make the window easier to raise and lower.
