From tool shed to Coop?

I'm betting they go in the coop at night, as they have been doing.

Oh that's right!!.... it's not like they haven't had a run before DOH!

As expected, they went into the Coop roost right on time last night.

I checked back to see. That's some good, smart girls you've got there. Way smarter than my Lavender Orpingtons. They are finally going in the house instead of sleeping in the middle of the pen. But I'm only getting about two-thirds of them getting on the roost. The rest of them pile up under the feeder.

Minor update: Yesterday I finished installing the new LED lighting system in the new Run. Geez, that thing is like daylight!

WOW, I guess!!
On timers for winter laying?

Are those rabbit waterers in the coop doors, are the chickens able to drink from them?

On timers for winter laying? No, but I could easily do that. Necessary?

Are those rabbit waterers in the coop doors, are the chickens able to drink from them? Yes. They drink from them quite readily. Now that the Run is done I will be adding one out there, until I get my new watering system built.

Debatable. Many aspects to consider.
Guess you added all those lights just because you could?

Basically yes. I want the light to be able to check on them in pitch black conditions, just in case.

Are they dimmable? Looking good!

Dimmable, but I have no intention of doing so.
