    Nice 🙂 We're just trying to build bigger nest boxes to accommodate the Brahmas we ended up with 🤣 If all the pullets we've gotten in the last month are actually pullets we'll have 20 hens.

    Designing coops

    I found a floor plan design app and I used it to design my soon to be chicken coop. Although the fencing is railings 😂 at least I understand what I'm doing. We have to do everything in stages due to finances, so I am starting with the run, the coop will come in another month. Nothing huge...
