i had to move and cant get my orignal coop until end of august because its too wet to get to it with a ramp truck. any ideas. right now they have a tarp over there run for shelter.
 
I feel your pain, literally! Our backyard is like soup. We have friends that gave us a temporary coop until things dry out and we can build ours. Last weekend we built a small run using branches and chicken wire and put a tarp over the top. Its not pretty but I kind of like it in a rustric kind of way. I wouldn't leave them out at night in it though. How many chickens do you have and do you have any scrap wood at all? Trust me the coop we are using right now is very makeshift. What about a garage or shed? Nights have been still pretty cool here and I am still using the heat light at night for my 9 weeks old chicks.
