    Problem solved!!!

    The fencing is welded wire, the kind usually used for chicken pens. Not sure what would be better. The roof is tin. I have an Australian cattle dog, but she is not allowed out alone.

    I put them on freecycle but no takers yet. I have tried the whole freezer thing before. it didn't end well. Never again.

    rooster rehoming

    I have seven roosters that are driving my hens mad and making them look like Andrew zimmern. It's sad really. I have 5 mixed breed and two buff orphington, one with a permanent limp. all are grown and I would be willing to give them to anyone who will come and get them.
