I was worried as I was at work all day. Came home and all is well.. We have 2 umbrellas in the run, under the shade cloth. That shade cloth held them in. Everyone was accounted for, I am so happy no chicken got blown around or out of the run. Plus our girl keeps a good eye on her flock.
We went up to strawberry Arizona and it was cold! The low yesterday was 30° and when we got there, we realized there were no fires allowed. Safe to say we nearly froze overnight when it dropped to 20° and even snowed. We had planned on staying until later today but as soon as we woke up around 6am we decided it was time to leave 
I prefer the slight breeze here over the snow haha. I hope everyone’s enjoying the weather!
This morning I was up early and sitting in the yard with the dogs and I quite clearly heard a rooster crow. Never heard that around here before. It was a few blocks away, but it was distinct. We're not allowed to have roos but I was delighted to hear him greet the day, anyway! I know of only a few people keeping 2-3 hens, so maybe this means chickens are becoming more popular around here.
We have 4x4 posts with shade 2 cloths, older one on top, 1 piece of corrugated metal & the rest is bird netting. The umbrellas are placed in the lower spots of the shade cloth. It’s been about 2 years so the rope (hay, plastic rope) needs to be tightened.
It’s a great sound, hope no one turns them in.This morning I was up early and sitting in the yard with the dogs and I quite clearly heard a rooster crow. Never heard that around here before.
