Someone was asking a few pages ago about the wisdom of turkeys and chickens sharing close quarters? I think the disease that they could communicate is blackhead. Chickens are carriers and turkeys fall sick.- heartsizedfarm

Beautiful! Is that grapevine or willow thatch? On a practical side, how do you clean that out?- heartsizedfarm

It looks solid and secure! That's the important thing. Details later. Could their ramp up to the nesting boxes be a little wider?- heartsizedfarm

I'm sure that's where the novel was based and probably also close to where the films were made. Who is your favourite Miss Marple? Mine is Joan Hickson. #kidnap- heartsizedfarm

Is that box on the left of the pic a nesting box or a dust bath? I was just thinking how neat a dust bath area it would be because the high sides would keep the ash from flying all over.- heartsizedfarm

My aunt and uncle used to live in Chipping Camden and I spent summers with them hiking old Roman roads that was a hobby of his. Love stone walls and homes that keep their history!- heartsizedfarm

Yeah I can just see it now -- searchlights panning the coop walls, sirens triggered by motion sensors, machine gun mounted on your back deck -- and someone on this thread will say, "yes, but . . ."- heartsizedfarm

Don't just knock on wood. Lay down some wood! Ha! Give them some brush or branches or hiding places in your run. They scurry to safety trying to get under something if they see an aerial predator, so give them that "bunker". Could save a life.- heartsizedfarm

You put a lot of thought and a lot of work into this! I love the front porch because it really is nice to hang out at the coop. What is the size of the openings in your run enclosure material? Maybe because the camera is so close it looks big, big enough for weasel?- heartsizedfarm

Thanks for these useful suggestions. Ever since we lost a hen to a hawk last fall I've been looking at the yard and fields from a hen's point of view and I've made some of these fixes as well. A brush pile in the corner of one field is their current go to, so i will make a few more of those in...- heartsizedfarm

Could you add something to the structure that would let you hang a waterer? I just use those five gallon tin things that hang to a foot above the ground. I hang it on a bungee cord. But if you want something completely enclosed what about a ginormous hamster bottle, hooked to the outside of...- heartsizedfarm
