Tiny Christmas tree lights for coop

[Cheryl]

Battery powered lights do eat up a lot of money, and keep in mind if you have cold weather, the batteries die even faster! The rope lighting is made for outdoors, you could easily run a outside extension cord to them...set them on a timer so you don't need to worry about off and on!

Cheryl,

That's exactly how I have our rope lights set up.

, Judy, I'm talking about a small string of tiny lights, like for the christmas wreath (or sm tree). They run using a couple of batteries. Problem that has been identified is that the batteries are short lived. hmmm. I could use rechargeables... But most likely will use an extension cord.

Curious, are the red lights only so you can see and not to give heat? I am looking to extend daylight a bit if possible.

I believe the chickens don't see the color red as "light" so it won't extend their day...it will help you see them in the dark.
