Here is a pic of our snowed in coop! we have about 20 and a half inches around the coop...
here is a snowy pic and a not snowy pic.

we have wire on top of our coop but also have bird netting on top of that so the little wild birds can't get in....the funny thing about that is that the combo of the two kept most of the snow on top and not in the coop!!

We got about 28" here in Baltimore, MD. This blurry picture was taken right after the storm, and you can see my cat waiting for the chickens to play with her (fat chance!). The chickens don't seem to enjoy the snow, but they keep their A-frame tractor pretty warm. I have it covered with a tarp and have bales of straw stacked along the north side of it; good thing, too, because the north side of their home has a snow drift going all the way to the top. I kept the door of their home closed throughout the storm, but opened it as soon as it ended. The chickens were not impressed with what they saw!

Yes, Poultrygeist. That is one fantastic place for chickens. Great job on that coop and run!

We lucked out- we only got 17" in this part of Maryland. Here are a few pics of my snow coops

Notice, if you squint, you can see the bantams on their front porch. This is 2 coops and runs connected to each other:

One of the fences collapsed:

This is the begining of last Saturday's snow-the 3rd coop:

and one of the residents:

This is what it looked like this morning..I put straw down so they would come out. The girls do not like the snow!
