Coop Door

So... when I built the coop in June, I still needed to put add some sort of way to raise and lower the coop door.  Having 98% of the coop done, and being summer and I was a little lazy and just screwed the door in the up position for the heat and didn't think much about it, until this week. The snow came and temps at night were getting as low as 27˚.  The last week of October, $1.79 of hardware and 5 minutes of time, I FINALLY got the coop door hook latch pulley thing done.  I go out around 7:00pm and shut the chickens up for the night, then in the morning, I go out and open it up.  I hope that keeps them warm enough through the winter nights.
