A true poultry palace! clap

I can envision a window box with red geraniums as the icing on the cake.

It is adorable!
It looks like your fencing is the plastic netting. Please be aware that out in the woods like that the chickens will not be safe from raccoons, possums or dogs of any sort. Early morning and late afternoon is not the only time they find your birds a nice snack.
Hopefully it is strong wire though and I am not seeing it well.

Totally beautiful set up though! The red flowers do sound like a nice touch, too!
