Simon Pigeon and Tuna Cat watch TV with me every night.
Solar powered Aviary and Coop
The Solar Chicken Coop-Aviary (for Pigeons too) sometimes gets up to 80+ degrees, works good even on cloudy days.. free heat. The surplus heat is drawn into the coop to keep it above freezing at all times. At minus 20 degrees at night, the radiant floor heat is sometimes needed in the coop, ... cost less than $5 for the entire winter. No frozen water, no frozen eggs, no frozen Chickens. Exceedingly easy to clean, everything mostly automatic, .. bright, clean and sanitary. Many internet cams. Can be left unattended for up to a month. Ordinary costs to construct.
. . With foil panels in summer, the aviary the coolest place the Chickens can be.
