They are small moveable coop/pens. The chickens are outside and have access to new pieces of ground every day or two. Tere is a small shelter attached.

That is my H&R .308 Varmint single...I now use a Thompson Center Encore Pro Hunter stainless in 280 Remington. Shot my buck last Wednesday with the 280. Took a lot of deer with the 308.
