Turkey Pen

Husband has been working on this and I think it turned out pretty good.  I like the rough cut lumber look. turkcoop 001.JPGturkcoop 002.JPGturkcoop 004.JPG

Looks pretty nice.

How many birds do you intend to keep in it?

Well, we have 9.  There are two sections inside the building and there will be another fenced in area on the other side also.  We think we have 5 gobblers and 4 hens.

I am really liking this turkey coop, I am considering one very similar.

One question, what did your husband use for the upright poles for the run...the green poles?

And where did he get them?

I think he got them at Lowe's.  They are the kind that have points at the bottom to pound into the ground.  All the other wood came from a local sawmill who we do a lot of business with.
