Open Contest Chilly Coop Contest!

That is so cute and lovely - very cottage-y how pretty!



Oooo how nice a covered outdoor run - and close to your house so you can pop out and see them! Another lovely setup you have there. Is this about as much snow as you get down there?

That was the most I’ve had in 3 years Usually less than 3-4 inches total per year. Melts quickly so no snow shoveling. My kind of winter!!!
The run and coop have a metal roof and the run is fully enclosed in hardware cloth.

it is summer here

I bet you could always snap a photo of your coop when it is winter and then post it next year when they to the contest again!

That’s awesome! And I love the idea of the roofed run. I would love to do that here, but the amt of snow I get it would cost a small fortune to make sure the roof wouldn’t collapse!

Here is my ladies’ cabin with a screened in porch, just next to mine. Set up so I can see them from my living room and we don’t have to shovel a ton to get to it. We are in the mountains just NW of Denver. No neighbors, so I could pick the most obnoxiously bright colors I wanted!

The ladies first winter and first snow. They pecked a path to the water dish eventually. 2/3 of the run is covered so they get to have the best of both worlds.

That's nice you have that mostly covered. Our breeding pen runs, hubby was going to cover and never got around to it, so he's out there a couple times a week shoveling four pens out so they can come outside.
