Lunchtime Surprises

Papa Hen made an improvement to Red Door Coop that I didn't know about until we were eating lunch at the picnic table this afternoon.  In some heavy rain earlier this summer we noticed a couple of leaks in the coop.  To solve this problem, Papa Hen added another piece of roofing where the chicken run and chicken coop meet.  He then caulked around the roof screws.  Part of this project involved detaching and re-attaching the solar panel and optic lens for the automatic door.  Here's what it looks like now.



Another benefit of the additional roofing material is that the spot where we have the light timer is better secured from the elements.

As usual, nice work Papa Hen!
