how to keep chickens from roosting on windowsills?

[shellybean40]

I was wondering how I could keep my bantams from roosting on the windowsills of my henhouse? It was originally a playhouse, and it has normal style windowsills and they like to sleep on them and as you can imagine-POOP on them. It is very hard to keep them clean, and I want the henhouse as clean as possible, you know? Any ideas?

Maybe angle a piece of plywood so they cant balance there. Some pictures of what your dealing with might spur some other ideas.

that is actually a really great idea.

Thanks!

Do you have wire over the windows? The wire would both deter them from roosting and protect them from predators.
