This one is made of wood and painted white. I need to repaint the inside light blue but I'll do that another day. We made this for the show in Baton Rouge and I did make it big but I wanted to be able to put geese in there. It's 3 x 3 x 3 and has 3 florescent lights on the inside. I also made a base for it that lifts it up a good 3.5 feet off the ground so your not bending over trying to take pics.
When you re-paint light blue, will it be a flat, or semi-gloss; and does the light blue help with glare, or just so pictures of white fowl have something to contrast with? This is so interesting...
Congratulations!
My first egg from Ron's birds. Are they all going to be this large? If so I'm very very impressed. If not at least one of my chickens is laying. After a dry spell from me selling the production hens that I did not like, I am looking forward to eggs.
I'd bet that the Canadian Geese were flying over and dropped that in your coop. Ha, ha, ha. Enjoy them. I can't say anything because that is one of the few that I don't have. lol

Yep, that is how it usually goes. I have 2 of my young Nelson girls that started a week ago and I don't think that I ever heard hens singing any more then these two do. I can alway tell when to look for their eggs, they have such a happy song almost the whole day. They sure are happy little girls. And the cockerel stays right beside her until she is done. Some of these critters sure are something. Humans could learn a lot on how to be parents from some of them.
