Here’s the door

Roost is 38” off the ground and so is feed n water

This is what the door looks like on to take the door off u just turn the two piece at top.

We shall see if I can get more done. Roof is almost all the way complete.

Guess u could say winter is here.

Back coops are insulated for the winter. And just got done cleaning out the barrel wall in the greenhouse. Pics tomorrow and it will be full tomorrow and all 3x3s should be empty or cleaned.

When I get more barrels I will move roosters and once I’m done building more 4x4s then I’ll move the 3x3s. Just gotta find the 4x8 sheets from last year.

There one of the last remaining in the cold. See yah tomorrow for another update.

I believe the only one left free ranging that I haven’t caught. I do believe that he is a pumkin hulsey

Butcher hen with spurs she wasn’t having nothing today lol.

2x2s loaded to the max they do sure make a mess.

And then there was the chicken wall ten foot or close to. Lol temp cages until after winter. And the new shavings from the wood mill work great. Anyways see you soon.
