ABSTRACT:
Protective sheltering apparatus for a rooster includes a housing mounted above the ground on the upper end of a vertically disposed pole and leashing apparatus for permitting the rooster to move limited distances about the pole and to fly up into the housing. The configuration of the housing is a pyramid or similar shape having side walls that come to a point. The leashing apparatus includes a sleeve positioned about the lower end of the pole, a leash having one end connected to the leg of the rooster and the other end connected to a ring positioned about the pole. The inner diameter of the ring is larger than the outer diameter of the sleeve so that not only can the rooster fly up with the ring constrained by the pole, but when the rooster is on the ground the ring may freely move relative to the sleeve. Thus, the leash becomes wrapped about the sleeve due to the rooster's movements, further pulling on the leash will result in the sleeve rotating relative to the pole to release the leash and not injure the rooster.
