About the Hill Country Roosthouse
Raising the henhouse off the ground solves the most common beginner problems: damp floors, burrowing predators and poor airflow.
The raised, treated floor keeps hens dry and helps prevent rot. Four nesting boxes open from outside, so you can gather eggs without stepping into the run.
