Another view,this one is a little bigger than the other one,and this one will go around the silkie coop so I won`t have to bend over to clean out there run and shovel in the winter,thats hard on the old back,will put chiken wirle on and the apron and bird netting on the top just like the other one.My chickens free range a lot now and I was going to let them this summer but what a lot of work going behind them after I put them in for the night trying to fix all my flower gardens,did you know that they dig big holes to take dust baths????????????LOL.Of corse you did.So I fenced in my biggest gardens to keep them out and then they think 10 acres is not enought so they go out in the road and I have to go shew them back.And then I have to be on the watch for the neighbors pit bulls getting lose and chasing them.Is it worth it?The girls say yes.
