Chicken Swing?

Yep, chicken swing?  I saw one site a while back that talked about a chicken swing and thought about it.  Then Lisa at Fresh Eggs Daily made one, too.  Here is Lisa's how to instructions.  I used the drill press to put the holes in the end of mine.

So I thought, why not?  My husband just trimmed some branches out of our mulberry tree and I had a couple of the right sized branches so I made my own.  The section with the coop has the ladder and one log which is the first photo.

 

The following photos are of the play area section of the run.   The first one has a branch in back, a log, and you can see the swing in the top left of this photo.

 

 

I have two cement blocks in this section and there are two self watering systems with cups.  One in each area but I have a rubber pan of water with a cookie tin warmer in here, too.

 

You can see the swing hanging by the ropes in this one, it is actually between the branch, and the brick and log.  I sat a couple on it and they stayed a minute and then got down.
