    Morning all. Well, blizzard was here and gone. 25" of snow with 3ft snow drifts against the coop and run. Poor girls. I need to try and dig them out today. Glad I tarped it to keep the brunt of the snow out.

    Good morning all. What a rain we got yesterday. I was lucky to get a couple breaks in the rain to get the main roof on minus ridge vent and caps, trim work done, and a vent window put on (and various locks).

    Some boards will be modified with hinges for ventilation, and the roof will have a ridge vent to allow heat exchange. Hopefully the rsin breaks soon and i can go tackle it some more. As far as more chickens, my wife said 3 is enough lol! I want to build a run. Just trying to figure out the size...
