No, they ALL(every breed of chicken) run around in the run in the rain. Nobody is bullied or pushed out, none of them go in the coops during the day unless to lay.

My barried rocks, columbians, houdans, easter eggers. They all sit outside and get soaked.

Half of my large run was roofed and my silkies could not figure out how to get out of the rain. They got soaked through every time and on cold nights I would have to dry them before roost. I gave up getting soaked trying to show them and have covered the whole run now

Sometimes I just shut the door and leave them in, like it or not..I liken it to taking the Halloween candy away before the kid eats the whole bag, you just have to do what’s best for them sometimes
