Best that could be done with the only shady spot in the garden (beside the garage). They spend most time free-range, but nice to have somewhere with a reasonable amount of dry space come wet winter days. I have to confess I've taken most inspiration from this site and added a good few things that I noted from other people's runs etc.
They said "Smile, things could be worse."
So I smiled.................and things got worse.

Simple set-up for 5 chicks. These are High Lines bought from Hatton Country World. Next time I'll try ex-bats I think.

We bought a coop/run but thought it was too small for our 3 hens so we extended it.
