I like the use of the t-posts and roof support connections. Clever.Was in and out of coop a dozen times this morning,
as soon as I sat back down upstairs, had a visitor.
Foiled by the run!

I am going to have to get creative for security for the coop and run at the new home. Burying HW cloth is not practical. Far too many trees and roots to contend with. But I have a few ideas to try.
They are supposed to start excavation for the garage on Thursday.

Has held up quite well for 4 years now, expected the PVC couplers to fail.
Fabrication details are on my coop page.
The pieces of 2x4 mesh on run walls and roof goes out into ~18" aprons on top of ground. Got it pinned down flat enough that I can mow right over it, granted I mow high anyway.
WooHoo on garage! Did you get all your birds moved?
Am actually surprised they haven't failed already, there's quite a bit of pressure on them at the screws.The PVC will likely have to be replaced eventually. Exposed like that to the weather will make it crack but it is easy enough to keep an eye on.
hope your garage is up and in working order real soon, sounds like all is going well, dont forget, a hot wire around the bottom about 1 foot off ground works great for most climbers and many diggers as they get the nose up to the fence and find it unfriendly,The PVC will likely have to be replaced eventually.

I'll have to go "flat" on the ground since I can't dig but I will get it nice and secure.
I'll move the birds after the township gives the OK on the garage foundation. After that it's unlikely that I'll have to see them again.
Hello all!
None of my chickens are laying and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas why or what I can do to get them laying.
I have four all together. One is old and I don't expect her to lay anymore. Two are over three years old and I thought maybe they should still be laying. One is almost seven months and I would have thought she would have started laying by now.
None of them are molting as of yet. The two that are over three have not laid since early summer. I kind of figured it was the stress of introducing the new one.
Anyone have any ideas, thoughts, suggestions? Thanks
