l love it! You'll be glad you used the hardware cloth instead of chicken wire. We get some strange and sneaky predators in our area.

Hi Dogfish,
Former banker at one of the super regionals. Then started my own business (www.sugarmillstorage.com) then contacted by regulators to lead a denovo group. Folded the denovo prior to opening in '06. Decided I was too young to retire at 38 in '06 and was fortunate enough to be asked by my Merrill team to become a partner in their practice. We formed our Wealth Management team and the rest has been just a ball (all except the riding the roller coaster of the Great Recession, LOL)

Thanks for the compliments on construction. I've seen plenty a blue prints, but never built anything. Heck, the tools I still own in my possession are a multi tool (phillips & flat head & pliers) and a hammer. Had to coalesce power tools from a few of the trades.

Keep in touch. Always great to meet a fellow banker!

I introduced the nipples when they were 2 1/2 weeks and they took to it in about 5 minutes. I put them in the bottom of a kids beach bucket and hung it in our brooder/55 gallon aquarium.

Wow, rockin' coop! Love the watering system and homemade feeders! Congratulations on being Dad of the Year to your daughter!

Can I have one?

Nice coop/tractor! I really like that and I am sure your little girl will to!

Of course you can hove one. A custom built coop like this one, with me (the banker) as your craftsmen, would only cost about $35,000 plus travel expenses. LOL

Oh, yes - remember, the cost of beer may eclipse the cost of construction!
