Its external right? You're going to want to find a way to seal the cracks on the top and lid really well. Caulk has done pretty well, but the chickens will pick at it if they can get to it. It looks great.

Hi BYC and Colorado BYCers
We are in Boulder CO, new to BYC, new to chickens, building the henhouse in the next couple weeks, getting the chicks in March/April, just going to have a few.
We've done our homework and will search BYC for additional advice, but any quick recommendations on where to get (and what to get) just a mix of 3 chicks (for egg laying)?
LOL turns out it is NOT on the car, it's on the fridge cause my husband is also, like, really? So OK, I'll wear the TSHIRT!I am out in Centennial/Aurora so wouldn't have been me
We are fostering a few ladies this week for a newbie to CO who just moved from Texas, she brought the girls over today and they are all huddled up in the coop after the initial butt sniff they are all doing great! I'm glad got some extra feathers for warmth on this cold night.
Happy New Year's all!
Check your instructions, should be able to turn off the turner on day 18, or else take it out and put the eggs in egg cartons with the bottom of the cells cut out to keep the turner cleaner.Huh, just thought of a question. Since I am using an automatic turner, do I need to take it out and lay the eggs directly on the wire when lockdown comes around?
LOL. Last year at this time I ws madly building stuff, including a huge wooden feeder that would hold over 100 lbs of feed...... This morning I tore it apart to use the wood for other projects, because it didn't work and was WAY too big!Its external right?
