Chickencoop upgrade

This year the livestock of our chickens has doubled and it has become a little crowded in the old coop, so I had to upgrade it.

In winter, our hens usually live in a greenhouse and given this fact I decided to make a summer extension, in which chickens will be able to hide from the rain and sleep on poles.

The material is rubbish, as usual, the roof from polycarbonate, not very aesthetic, but lightweight and functional and most importantly, all materials are free.

There was not enough polycarbonate for the entire roof and I left part of the roof open. But the magpies quickly realized and began to steal eggs. I had to throw a net over the roof and mask it with branches.

It turned out quite simple, but effective

The chickens liked it, some chickens sometimes spend the night on the roof.

Well, since the chickens are happy, then so am I.
