I left my birds in the coop during my nasty hurricanes but my coop is hurricane proof.

I can't read back right now...
How many birds?
How safe is you're coop?
And is it possible to bring them into a garage/the house?

No, my coop is not cyclone proof. Cyclones don't often get this far south but they do occasionally happen. The coop is a prefab of fir wood & not anchored to the ground. I don't have a garage. I only have 4 birds @ present & am thinking a large crate in the bathroom or workshop area. I will have to source a crate. The house has done a couple of cyclones so I know it's solid.

If you must...for the worst part of the storm...put them in a bathroom.
With a sheet or newspaper all over the floor.



Is the prefab coop small enough for you to bring indoors?

Sadly no. We are renovating & are doorless on most rooms. Hence why I was thinking a large crate in the workshop...???

 

[Ribh]

I know. We're weird. It's just an unexpected situation. In another month or so it wouldn't matter. The new coop would be up, doors would be on & we'd have more options...
