I'm all excited and most of my friends roll their eyes when I start raving on about chickens so I'm sharing with you lot.
I finally found a place that has cheap timber (plus a little bird told me I'm getting a circular saw for my birthday tomorrow) so I've arranged for the timber to arrive on Tuesday while my 2yr old is at daycare and I'm going to make a start on our new coop as soon as I put the 1yr old down for her nap! It's a Garden Coop one and I'm hoping to do most of the construction myself with my lovely man proving a spare pair of hands and brute force from time to time since I'm vertically challenged and not terribly strong.
I'll be hopefully posting pics of my progress (although I'm not allowed to put up ones that are too detailed of the coop design) and I'm aiming to have it completed by the middle of December - 6 weeks should be more than enough time I reckon. *fingers crossed*
Watch this space!
