After the stark realization that we are getting chicks in like 2 days we decided to put together a chicken coop. Milly went into the big city and bought the materials. We spent about $250 and think we have enough to put together a royal palace (at least for a chicken). It will be 8’x8’ and the walls are 6 ft high. Here’s the beginnings of the structure. Grey beard framed up the floor on some and put them on some old poles I peeled a couple of years back.  Cow 004 We did up 3 walls like this and made another one with a door frame. Cow 003 Grey beard at work. Cow 015Cow 014 Me figuring out the rafters. Cow 029   More to follow tomorrow.

    Wow! Now THIS we can approve! This meets our standards and is approved for erection for our fine feathered freinds.
