Winterizing the Coop

Today was a beautiful day, so my hubby worked outside getting the coop ready for the cold weather. He wrapped the smaller run with some plastic to keep out the cold winter winds. He also brought the extension cord out there so when it gets colder we can have our heated water dispenser. We haven’t had a frost here yet, but it’s good to get ready. The girls had a nice afternoon running around the yard and inspecting the renovations.

As you can see, the head of cabbage we hung in the larger run is hanging there totally ignored.  Not at all like the eager cabbage-pecking I saw from the chickens on youtube. I thought this might happen. Kind of like when you buy a cat scratcher and the cat still uses your sofa.
