All the connecting doors and - openings are closed. The various openings which are a distinct advantage in the management of the stock are shown. The two wire-netting frames beyond the water fountain, on the wire-netting partition on right of photograph, are hinged at the top and are normally kept open, as one is in the illustration immediately below, thus allowing the birds to make full use of the sunporch. This is a distinct advantage when people are walking through the sunporches; the birds can get away easily into the remainder of a pen and therefore do not get as frightened as they would if caught in an enclosed space.
