Hawiaan Ti (pronounced "tea") Great houseplant, cold and heat and humidity or dry air tolerant, drought and flood tolerant, chicken and children safe, edible, comes back from root after frost. And just so flippin pretty!
I was using paper for nesting material, then started adding fresh picked citrus leaves. The leaves give a wonderful scent and I no longer add paper: they just get new fresh leaves every couple of weeks. They like it and I think the bottom mesh is nice and cool, too. The back wall just is open to fencing and it was more sunny than expected so I hung a flour bag dish towel. They can still see out, but feel secure enough to lay!
2013 update. The nest box had a solid botoom that just collected all the sand from dustbathing. When the. Oop and run got moved, I separated the nest box so the coop would fit in the "indoor" covered section of the run. This section all locks up securely at night. The egg box now has a hardware cloth bottom and the sand sifts right out. Nice! Eggs much cleaner, now!
Young Hopi Red Dye Amaranth is red plant in glass with parsley. In front are the sweet peppers from Turkish seeds. They also had that type in Spain and would deep fry them in oil, salt them, then yum!

2012-05-19 they like to use the ladder outside at bedtime: of course those doors are open for them, though! Where the round vent is, I later added a large window with hardware cloth for more ventilation. That round cover was put onto a new additional vent on the side, so there is now one small round vent on the both sides. They love looking out all the vents and fight over the prime spot...
2012-05-19 there are three roost bars inside.
Slight move inside the run to enable adding nest box. Added legs, and vented doors for cleaning.
