Hi and from Ohio. So glad you joined. That is one neat setup.

Thanks again all for the warm welcome.

Monday I was able to get some photos of a red fox family currently residing under my neighbors shed, about 30 yards from my Yoke System chicken coop. There appeared to be at least five fox pups. I decided to work on adding some side skirts of wire off the run to better protect our chickens during the day. The photo shows a work in progress in that regard.

You got some cute chicks there. Enjoy!

What are the funny graphic designs on the front of the coop? They look a little like the 'danger radiation' signs...

Hey canesisters,

Those "funny graphic designs" are actually adjustable vents to help keep your chickens cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Check out www.theeggyolk.com for more information.

P.S. Actually, we thought the same thing when we first designed this. You should see the yellow version of the coop with black vents. Spooky! But totally functional. Thanks for noticing!
