I was winterizing my coop:enclosure this past weekend and replaced the tarp that covers the top of the enclosure as it was really weathered and falling apart to a new tarp. (Blue tarp to a gray one) and put up windblocking plastic sheeting on 1 side of the enclosure.
My girls as mad. Both are very secured, but anytime the wind catches it and ruffles the tarp they freak out and run into their house. They are hiding out in their house often and it takes a lot to coax them out, and they don’t wanna spend a lot of time in their run now. Prior they would be out al large time, in their pool, sleeping.
The old tarp would make tarp noises occasionally and it never bothered them before. It’s been 4 days and I feel bad they’re just staying in their house, they come out to eat and drink but quickly retreat to the house.
They’re still laying but I’m worried that prolonged stress will get to them. Any suggestions to get them to relax a bit?
