    New nesting boxes!

    Yeah, they're solid. The two screws hold it TIGHT. They kind of flatten what is being tightened. They're not rolling/moving...

    New nesting boxes!

    Might be a bit overkill for 6 hens, but I'm sure they'll work. Had the buckets. Needed a simple nesting solution. Already had the shelf. I'm thinking it'll do the trick...

    Long Overdue Coop Upgrades!

    Been a very long time since I've posted. Thought I would share my "new" feeder. I bought a bunch of 5 gallon buckets. I had a old plastic tub laying around in shed. Pretty self explanatory. It fit perfectly into an old shelf in coop. It appears to be hen-approved!

    We have power!

    So I finished running electric to my coop. It's got a single bulb, and a double outlet. I'm not going to use it much, so I figured this would be enough. The chickens don't seem to mind...

    Homemade Feeder

    Really, I was looking for something convenient that I wouldn't have to go into coop. But a 5 gallon bucket would keep them fed for a while, so really, should suffice.

    Homemade Feeder

    Definitely issues I have been thinking of (mostly due to recent weather). Rodents I am not too terribly worried about as they can't "get to" it...unless they chew through wood of course. I have a 5gallon feeder inside too. I may just fill that up and keep that going to be honest. If I can't...

    Homemade Feeder

    Built this guy today from some cedar boards and 2x6. It turned out great. It can hold something like 50-75lbs. Feels good to be able to feed them without opening door.

    My new tiller!

    Virgin ground is rough! I won't be doing it this year (needs to much it turns out). Next year, I'll be using a plow or cultivator first...

    My new tiller!

    So I got my new tiller fixed (welded new brackets). I had to do a lot of fine tuning / adjustments to get it to work. It's a 38" Gravely, modified to work with me BX1860. Great part is that it's offset. I'm planning to till up some soil for corn, beans (outside fence), and veggies and fruit...
