@the.hen.hearth: A simple easy way to protect our girls this winter without costing us a lot of money! #backyardchickens #winterizedchickencoop #FYP #chickenmom
Yep! I do the same thing! Works great. Creates a green house effect so it keeps them warmer and I can still see in. I use Walmart shower curtains for my coop and my finch aviary every year

Do you put holes in the bottom to zip tie them?

I do this with my ducks. Was so easy. Used zip ties and a hole punch.

This will be my first winter with chickens so I want to do everything I can to protect them from the cold and make sure they are well taken care of. Besides the shower liners do you do anything else? They will have a 19x20 run along with a chicken coop to go in.

I bought these but could not figure out how to tie down? Did you just put random holes in the plastic?

Can you show close ups of how you attached it? I have a coop like yours and all I’ve seen are wooden ones!

I used to use shower curtain liners also but this year I bought patio enclosure plastic. it's much thicker and will keep the animals warmer

We have this same coop and it’s our first year with chickens (so first winter) does the snow build up on top bend the run at all? Worried it’s going to collapse

Can you put one over the doorway with a slit down the middle to keep the draft out but still accessible?

the coop is the little house. the fenced area is the run. you are winterizing your chicken run
