    My new run will have hardware cloth buried in the ground as well. Maybe I'm just being over cautious. I just want to do all I can to keep the ladies safe. They're good at going to bed ( :)). The other part of my equation is that I'm in CT and winter lows can get down to 0; so warmth is a...

    There's one I hadn't thought of; animals being smart enough to push the button to open the door. They are relentless. I guess once they learn the trick ---

    I’m looking seriously at this one. I called and spoke to Ron because I’m not seeing much info about how hard the door comes down. Have you ever had a bird stuck in it and/ or hurt?

    I was looking at these actually and spoke to Rod. Even from what he said it sounded like one way or the other the door was going to close. :/. If you have your hand in it when its closing does it hurt when it hits your hand?

    Wow! That sounds nuts! I agree with what you say about them being there even though I don’t see them. And its for this very reason that mine don’t free range. The vast majority of the time they’re in a enclosed, covered run. Only when I’m out supervising are they in an additional run...

    Automatic coop doors: I'd love your input

    I'm having a new coop built for my ladies and was thinking of an automatic door. But, I'm seeing mixed reviews from doors made of plastic, to doors made with metal; doors that close on items they hit, to the point of a review that one decapitated a bird; doors with nice sensitive stops that...
