I came home tonight and went up to cover the crate with a tarp and a padded picnic tablecloth. Since it was almost dark she was sleeping on the floor of the crate instead of in the box with the shavings. I kinda felt bad but know she will be warm enough for tonight.
The crate has chicken wire wrapped around it so I dont think coons will be a problem. However, from reading another post I think from now on I will put her into the coop in a nesting box for the night, since its getting dark early, and put her in the crate for the day in the early am.
More for warmth than anything.
