Do you have a sign on your coop?

My inside sign is going to read, "No Cocks allowed" for 2 reasons. #1 I'm the only girl in the human house, so I figure the hen house ought to have no boys allowed. And #2, the city prohibits roosters, big time. (It was going to be above the front door but the hubby objected.)

As for my outside sign, not sure yet. Love the ideas though.

I just finished viewing your BYC page. What a beautiful chicken coop and yard!! That is my dream coop! you have a wonderful hubby to help you like that.. mine doesn't want to have anything to do with the chickens...He doesn't help at all... but he likes to give my eggs away!! lol....
Does putting the electrical wire and water in the pvc pipe help the water from freezing in the winter? that is one problem I am having... my coop is about 300 feet from our home and the water has already froze. So I have an extra two waterers that I switch back and forth and carry out to the coop with warm water. I am "like you said" getting muscles...LOL...

You should be very proud.. a lovely home and yard.. GReat job!!
 
Thanks Gallinamama!! I love it too.

The PVC pipe was for protection for the wires I believe. Unfortunately, this won't be good enough to keep the water line from freezing in the winter. It will be back to carrying water jugs down to the girls. The heated water bowl is a wonderful invention though. We didn't have them back 30 years ago when we had our chickens. I remember kicking those rubber bowls to get the ice out. So I'm grateful.

My line has already froze up a couple of times.. since we have had warmer weather it is working again.. but my coop is so far and carrying the warm water has already injured my arm! but I will carry on. There must be some way but I just have not figured it out yet. I am going to buy the solar panels maybe this week... have some extra money stashed as long as something doesn't come about. You know how that it... always something... LOL I might get my son in law to bring me some plywood for the top of my run...I have tarps on it but the rain has puddled and now the fencing is bent in and I have two ponds on top of the run... haha.. I am not going up north this weekend to work so I can get some things done at home this weekend and next... yeah....
 
I have the letters to make my sign on the coop... "Clucknstuff"... I got them at Micheals and I want to paint them different colors... just like the old puffnstuff show... and on the run do a puffnstuff look alike chicken... but this will be next spring... I will post pics.

Lovely job!

Thank you very much! It wasn't hard to make, I made three of them. The other two are on our horse run-in sheds.

Please share the other two signs!! Pics please!!
