mere 1289 90 including the run shipping is 130 a bargain compared to the anthropologie coop that roof doesn t look very snow worthy so how much is henbogle coop worth features include an antique window stainless steel roof front and side door and lift up egg access posted in coop life 8 comments a little chicken august 26 2012 looking out but not venturing out yet this morning we set up a smaller hen pen for the girls right outside henbogle coop bucky raised the girls in a large barn and the girls are therefore not used to being outside a small pen will give them room to explore but make it easier for us to herd them into the coop at bedtime posted in coop hens 3 comments meet the new girls august 26 2012 our fabulous neighbor mechanic bucky decided to retire from the egg business fortunately for us he started a new flock of chicks earlier this spring he offered us eight and we said you betcha especially since the girls were our favorite golden comets they were hatched on may 24 so should be laying in a few weeks the girls are still a bit shy but they will get used to us i am sure no names yet but that will no doubt change as we get to know them since the weeds had overtaken the hen pen dan weed whacked then mowed and yesterday we picked up some very nice mulch hay to suppress the weeds and give the girls something to scratch through it looks so much more inviting i so missed my hens hooray posted in coop hens 9 comments sprucing up henbogle coop august 24 2012 henbogle coop was beginning to look a little sad the yellow stain had faded and the coop was in need of a thorough cleaning dan man power washed it last week when he did the decks now that it has had a chance to dry time renew the stain and paint the white trim again new hens are on the way we also mowed the weeds and will spread a giant bale of mulch hay for the new girls to enjoy eight golden comet pullets 12 weeks old will be arriving this weekend they ll be laying before you can say eggs for breakfast posted in coop food hens 6 comments chicken littles december 7 2010 we got some snow yesterday the girls were not impressed omg the sky fell the sky fell brawwwk what is this stuff i don t like it i m going back in let me in alright maybe it won t hurt us omg where did she go are her feet melting she s getting scratch i want some and later in the hendome all are happy winter comes to henbogle posted in coop hens weather 13 comments the hengineers november 10 2010 sunday we put up the hendome for the hens to have a place to roam this winter of course we had lots of supervision we have used a hendome for a number of years but changed our design a bit this year making it much wider to give more floor space we added a coupling and an extra 2 5 feet to each 10 length of pvc pipe fiving the girls a 10 foot wide run that is about 10 feet long the blue cord in the background is the extension cord bringing power to henbogle coop for the water heater and a simple light fixture for light and warmth we set up the hendome up just in time for a ferocious wind and rain storm sunday night into this morning we got a lot of rain it looks like over 2 inches in the rain gauge and wind gusts of up to 60 mph i kept waking through the night on sunday thinking the hendome might blow away but i was relieved to see on monday morning it was still in place as was my hoophouse we closed off one end completely and stacked straw bales in the other end leaving a hen sized opening and adding structural support to the hoops by wedging the straw bales against them the inside has a deep layer of straw for the girls to scratch around in the straw will make an excellent addition to the compost pile in the spring we add a long straight branch propped on concrete blocks for a roost and the dome becomes a light filled cozy snow free area for winter days the whole process proves quite entertaining for the hens we will put the pumpkins i grew for them and other treats in the hendome to provide entertainment during the dark days and they will be snug and happy all winter lucky girls posted in coop hens 7 comments eggs september 23 2010 claire at whispering acres in iowa has a good post about commercial egg factories today posted in coop hens madness 7 comments a close call december 30 2009 after monday s mild weather winter returned to boot me firmly in the potting bench tuesday snow overnight was following by free falling temperatures and a wind that would blow the hair right out of your follicles brrrr nonetheless the hens were out and about scratching in the hendome alternately with visits to the coop for food and water when dan went to close the coop later in the day though he only counted 5 hens in the coop his heart sank and he raced to the house to get me to help look for them in the growing dark i shoved on my boots and ran out heart in my throat i was so afraid we d lost them to a fox or they d gotten out and were roosting somewhere in the woods and would freeze to death overnight predicted overnight temps were as low as 16 f with the wind chill it was cold brutally cold winds howling we saw hen tracks in the snow along the garden fence then another set leading into the garden we removed the gate for the winter but the tracks did not lead out there were no signs of a struggle no feathers or worse yet blood then dan realized the tracks disappeared right by henbogle coop he looked under and there they were lily and lucy huddled together under the coop we shooed them out they were not happy to be shooed and after checking for frostbite got them into henbogle coop to join their sisters and warm up we left the lamp on for extra warmth closed them up and thanked our lucky stars we determined they must have flown out of the pen looking for more of that delicious grass from monday then didn t have enough sense to fly back in we were lucky they found the coop to provide shelter we checked them over this morning and thankfully saw no signs of frostbite lucy and lily both got their wings clipped to prevent any future flights of fancy now we just have to make a plan for taking care of the girls during a big three day storm if it materializes please no with forecasts calling for between 24 48 inches of snow between friday night and monday posted in coop hens 4 comments is she or isn t he september 28 2009 a rooster i m beginning the think the crow i heard two weeks ago was an anomaly for the next week i dutifully took my digital camera with me every morning when i let the girls out for the day nothing not even a raucous braawwk just a whole lot of flapping and fluffing and racing around after a night in the coop now 14 days later and still no sign of crowing i m beginning to think that one morning there was a little surge of male hormones but the female hormones kicked in later in other words i m think we have all hens i hope i am correct in this posted in coop hens 8 comments one handsome
