At first the scratching-shed had the front entirely open. Later the entire front was covered with muslin; later still, this was reduced in size, the opening being wide horizontally and narrow vertically to prevent the wind and sleet from blowing directly upon the fowls during the day. The house having the cloth-covered front or cloth-covered window has the disadvantage of requiring more personal attention in opening and closing windows to meet changes in the weather than does the house with separate scratching-shed. If the windows are stationary it is not possible quickly to take care of wide extremes in Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original New York State College of Agriculture; Cornell University.
