previously jwehl // dogs & cats & squirrels oh my!
I want to do them at the same time because it would be a waste to put hardware cloth everywhere to predator-proof and then have to put boards on top of that to winterize. I am hoping to come up with something that is acceptable winter and summer in Georgia. It hasn't been under 5F in 15 years
(Record Lows).
Main "Coop"
Not visible: wooden panel 5 or 6 boards wide in the middle of the two chicken areas has been removed so all the chickens have access to both sides. Same panel exists between peachick pen and chicken pen but is currently in place.
The back of the pen just kinda stops when it hits the fence line with the fence being used as the back, chicken wire or 1/2" mesh has been used to close that off.
Chicken pen: ~14'x14' combined
Ideally these guys just sleep in here. They arent usually this cramped, 2 roosts are down. Locked up atm to teach the girls where to lay but typically free range. I plan to buy a new hanging feeder eventually.
Side "Coop" and "Run"
These pictures are less thorough than I realized. Let me know if they arent enough.
Ideally these birds would live in here full time. Roofed area 85'². Mesh area 64'².
