Clear. I had tarps over the roof, and it kept it dry and mostly snow free all winter. But it was dark and gloomy. I have Australorps, and they often lay through their first winter, but these gals took two months off.clear or color?
Hey, maybe they'll lay through their second winter! Yeah, right.
Where they are has a fair amount of tree cover and therefore shade, but I can easily add a tarp over the top if I need to block out some of the sun. I plan to have a ridge vent at the peak too.
