I needed a lid for my 7 x 7 x 4 foot chicken coop (see Kettle's book How to Build a Chicken Coop). I wanted to keep the snow from rolling so our 4 Chukas would have a better winter in Colorado when the storm raged. Well, this size is more than enough, and the thickness is tight and not torn. It is translucent so you can see through it clearly. I opened it up and placed it securely on one long side of the chicken coop. When a thunderstorm is forecast, my wife and I raise it and cover the entire structure. We weigh it down with heavy cobblestones and blocks. It endures wind and storm, and the birds fly out to play dry, and there's tons of snow in the yard. deleted, we withdraw it. It appears to be solid, ie it has not yet disintegrated and has not become brittle. I'll let you know. Addendum: Well, a strong strong wind and an ice storm ripped the plastic apart, not quite, but quite a bit. I saved it with Gorilla Tape and wood paneling hung over the main side of the hutch which takes the brunt of the weather. Voila! It works out. So back to the drawing board, as the saying goes; However, I now plan to hang siding (very similar to hurricane protection) that can be easily placed around the chicken coop if a storm comes and removed when it doesn't. I still like plastic, but not so well for our high prairie Colorado weather. It cannot be expected to withstand wind gusts of up to 60mph in sub-zero temperatures.
