We are now starting to install the siding and the soffit. So far we only had to buy the OSB board. The windows are salesman's
samples, the door Gary salavaged from one of his job sites, it was going to dump, but I think it looks great on my coop,
all the siding was left over from jobs(slightly different colors but I don't know if chicken will able to tell the difference.

to do with it, so we are going to line the coop floor with it. After we spray primer on the inside. I did buy the primer today, it was
$15. I also pickup the hardware cloth(not cheap) but is more secure that chicken wire. Well thats all for now.
