Most likely local regulations, not sure.

Apologies for the late response, been away from my device. Yeah, looks like excellent cover. However, if I were to try to do anything like that, the primary concern would be the cost, and attempting to make it look good. If I were to have my way, the chickens would have a section of the yard...
