Its been so miserably hot here this summer, another heat advisory today and the chickens dont want to leave the coop because theres no shade in the run till later this afternoon. I have a small dome tent I set up out back for my son to play in and today I had a thought.....the rain fly! It has hooks and elastic bands on each corner, I stretched it from the fence to the nails on the wall where the netting is attached. Perfect! and they are much happier. Just thought I would mention it, maybe someone else could use the idea.
Oh and I am definitely planting a bush over there to shade them. I have a huge snowball bush in the yard and when they are out thats where then hang out.
