CARE OF THE LITTLE CHICKS
Excellent Shelter Provided for Hen
and Her Brood by Use Of Frame
and Wire Netting.

Here is a drawing of an original
coop and run for hen and her young
brood. Its advantages are many,
writes Alfred M. White of Fairfield
county, Ohio, in Orange Judd Farmer.
For instance, the chicks are safe
from hawks, crows and rats; at all
times they have limited range without
becoming nearly drowned in high,
wet grass; they are near safe shell
ter at time OF sudden thunder show
ers; hens with early Matched chicks
are likely to wean them before chilly
nights have passed; no danger of a
hen picking another hens chickens
to death; chicks are always at their
feeding place at feeding time.
The run is three and one-third by
six feet and twenty inches high, cover
ing twenty square feet of ground. The
framework is made of one by two
inch material. The sides, top and the
ends opposite the coop are covered
with one-inch wire mesh eighteen
inches wide. The little Stat door on
top is for convenience in feeding and
watering.
