I love the dogHere's our recently completed coop and covered run--a larger attached run is still in progress. We have a flock of 6 pullets: speckled sussex, buff orpington and easter egger. We live in a chicken friendly neighborhood in Austin, Texas. Exterior with doors closed (a lock has since been added for extra security against critters) Exterior side view, showcasing the covered run underneath the coop. And our flock guardian: Petunia. She likes to lie down next to the covered run and let the girls peck at her ears. And lastly a view of the coop from our "chicken tv" viewing area. The next boxes are accessible by a sliding door and the rest of the upper portion is covered by a hardware cloth screen. There is a pop door in the floor of the coop that operates by cord and pulley and leads down to the covered run. The coop is in a shady spot in the yard to keep the central texas brutal summer temps as low as possible. Loads of venitlation in the coop and sand flooring helps too. As does frozen watermelon treats for the girls. .
