Now.... the coop is RE-Done, Updated Now we have poop boards (!!!), expanded the back endof the coop. Added a couple of windows for natural light and ventilation. And added "chicken jail" under one side of our poop boards, in this case to safely integrate our young pullets into the flock...

FYI: Took this thread and one other that I've been watching for about a year now.... and tonight, FINALLY, I have poop boards and chicken jail for my girls. I got my pullets out of the dog crate and into "chicken jail" and they LOVE it. I also added in a small ladder section and they know...

5. Can someone point me where to look for ideas to keep water from freezing in sub zero temps. Well....#5: I solved this one this winter (can't keep running out every 3 hours with hot water).... HEATED BASE...

This is my pretty NH Red when she was only about 14 weeks old. My friend, Tracy, who owns Paw Prints Photography, came over and got this great shot for me :)

Dave is standing on the base of stone dust... which we'll be adding to, probably up to the top of the first ground post. On top of that, we have construction sand which will be our topcoat. I have two uprooted stumps that we'll place in there for perching purposes, and I'll be adding some sort...

... and this is my DH (Dave) AKA my chicken coop engineer!!! Today, in the mist and drizzle, we worked on getting the run walls up. Nearly done! The girls have to be in the coop in the next 2 weeks (getting to big to be "cooped up" in their enlarged brooder!

so.... we've been working on the coop for severeal weeks... on and off.... Here's the inside (above viewing the coop door, below viewing the opposite wall). You can see the red roof of the nesting boxes in that one.

Soooo... here's the wall opposite my nesting boxes!! 2 branch perches will rest parallel to this wall. My older daughter has kindly created some nice poofy clouds and a happy sunshine to keep the girls in good spirits (or, at least me while I'm cleaning the happy coop!),. We'll be adding...

AndyMac: Hubby is having to construct the chicken run... after we get the rest of the inside of the coop done (almost there). MIGHT be more than a weekend project (unless you have some construction experience on hand).

Sooooo, here's my older daughter (Leah, the artist) sprucing up my Happy Chickie Coop.... did the sunshine and puffy clouds today (these on the wall behind the perches. Grass and flowers will follow later on this week.
