Thank you one and all! Dirty Roo will regain his pretty boy image. ScaredOfShadows-I especially appreciated the details. He was really much more passive than I anticipated. Knowlege is a powerful tool.
P.S. He rolled around in yellow latex paint-Dawn is magic, good on oil spill birds and...
Indoor/Outdoor Christmas lights were in the ice, snow, blizzard, hurricane like winds here in East Central Indiana, so I figured why not try them because I did not like that bulb and my non mechanical expertise. Pleased to report that while hen house was 30-40 degrees inside with no auxillary...

I am close to Richmond.
Gutsy folks who will pick up a drill with little or less experience and be creative, fun and useful. Has BYC and associated coop construction, runs, raising our peeps, replaced golf and keeping Lowes,etc. going?
Can't eat a golf ball!
I used christmas lights, twinkle then non twinkle. Used it AFTER the massive attack. Have stopped using them-no attacks-but did they work or not-made me feel better!
Paid twice that for mine and love it! I put several layers of newpapers on "droppings" tray and cover with thin layer of cat litter-keeps odor down. I detached roof, used clip light to accommodate 250 watt red bulb, and used 3 of those inexpensive sliding window screens on top-voila! Last year...
