Do any of you have the solar powered electrified fencing? I was reading the package and said something about weeds affecting the wire & circuit... Any experience with this from anyone?

Thank you so much for the pix! Do I install the boxes before I put up the T1-11 sheets, or after they're already up? One more question,...(sorry)... Do you need to waterproof the hinges on the lid that opens up?

Cool. I'm considering a covered run, but just have to figure out the framework system for the metal roofing...
Those are all really good tips! Thanks to all! What about ground hogs? I've got them EVERYWHERE! I see them daily. What are they attracted to? Are they a danger to my chickies?

Very good points.
I'm getting a mixed flock. I'm like you,....I can't decide which ones to get. I'd like to get some dark chocolate and blue/green layers. I want pets,...not show birds.
....do you guys suggest for those trap cages with the fall down door? I've used cat food and peanut butter with no luck? What do you guys recommend?
Can I put meat in it? Will something come get it if it's spoiled?
great looking coop & run! Can you please post some pix of your roofing system? How you attached those pieces of roofing? Rafters or posts? Thanks a bunch!!!
I couldn't see or figure this out,....but how did you attach your nesting boxes to the coop. And I didn't see were the hinges where to the tops of your boxes. You're hiding them very well!

HAHA! I'm hoping to move my goats in this big open pen, with my coop and run in the middle. Hopefully the goats will use the little doggy house...
