Zaltana Anatolians

5 months old,



Cici, the queen of the couch, well, for a few minutes at least. Cici isn't much interested to stay in the house for any length of time, she likes to come in, hang out a little, but then she wants to go back outside, Sammie and Enya take turns staying in the house at night, haven't tried Teddy yet.
My new pullets, they are all Ameraucanas and about 2 months old, they will be laying colored eggs, greens and maybe some shade of blue if we get lucky, this was on a windy day, they figured out that it is more comfortable in the chicken house.
This is a little structure I put together from all sorts of leftovers. It provides protection from the wind and the sun, I will probably add a little more to this structure as I have more odd pieces left over when I build something else. This structure is mostly for the chickens, but it will also provide protection for one or two dogs if needed.
this is another shade and wind protection structure. I had a bunch of half doors left from when the doors in my shed were replaced. So I attached for of them together to make the roof for this and then I attached some felt type blankets to the top to increase the shade area. So far this structure has made it without getting damaged through some major wind storms, the wind was blowing pretty good when I took the picture, and the chickens were happily staying out of the wind and sun, and also using their wading pool (the white square to the left of the structure), to cool down.
