Not from this winter, but an older picture of the coop and run in fresh snow. The snow attached to the netting. This year we barely have any snow.

Welcome to the Official BYC Winter Contest Series
Chilly Coop Contest!
​

Welcome to BYC's Chilly Coop Contest. Some coops are purchased kits and some are custom-crafted. Some coops are recycled wood and some are painted. One thing that all of our coops share in common is a place for our feathered friends to lay their eggs and to keep their fluffy butts safe and warm in the winter. We want to see those cozy cottages and fortified fortresses this winter.

Entering is easy, just post your pictures in this thread!

If you'd like some tips on how to take better photos, take a look at this thread: Photography Tips from BYC's jolenesdad

The rules:

1. All entries must be submitted/posted to this thread.
2. Three entries per member (an entry can have up to ten pictures of the same coop/run).

The run 1/2 way through the storm. I went out to rescue a song bird that was stuck in the run.
