Ah, yes! That's certainly good advice. Thanks!Suggestion: use a hasp instead of a bolt, the type you can turn the part a lock would go through. Slide a carabineer through. Raccoons can open bolts, so why not make it raccoon proof before they show up and decimate your flock? I had a raccoon wipe out my flock except for one that was brooding in a cage at the time.

This is what I did with advice from BYC members.
