yeah, it seems the work on coops never ends, does it?
I have to start thinking about the sun porch - last year I built with hay bales and old storm windows for walls, and old plywood for the top. It was well used - gave a warmer area out of the wind, and since I just did it on bare ground, they had access to snow free dusting baths all winter. I think it was about 2 hay bales wide by 3 bales long.....I want to do it again. It tickled me to see half the flock crammed in there on sunny winter days when they still weren't too happy about walking on the white stuff.
so that means, gotta go find someone with hay in small bales. harder and harder to find each year.
