Cool Chicken House
Who doesn't love a chicken run? This cool coop is by David Rosen, an Associate Producer at CBS News in New York. His goal, in addition to sheltering four egg-laying hens, was to design a structure that complemented his house, a modern barn in Rockland County.
Here's some background, in Rosen's own words: "Our adventure with chickens began a year ago when an abandoned rooster wandered onto our property. 'Big Red' became the mayor (and terror) of our street. When he wasn’t asserting his dominance over whoever crossed his path, he was friendly and curious, and kept me company while I was building his home. We left a warning sign and a pile of sticks for unsuspecting joggers."
