    @lillykew your coop is awesome! Great reuse of materials, I may try to copy your pallet siding. Also agree that at some point reused materials are not practical. And: "sometimes even double checking your math won't save you" :lau

    Thanks :D Hanging them by yourself is a bit of a pain; get a helper if you can. My run stays bone dry even in heavy downpours!

    It Has Gutters! or, a Coop and Run from the Ground Up

    "It has gutters!" is often the first comment I hear. Indeed; and we'll get to the reason for that eventually. But let's start at the beginning. As my esteemed colleague and sometime-bartender Paul tells me: you can change a plan, but only if you have one. Not to scale. 12' long, 6' wide, 8'...

    Hens/roos with the funniest or funest names

    This is Number Six being the last one in, as usual. I didn't name my hens since I didn't want to get too attached. When people asked, I'd jokingly say "Sure, I named 'em 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6." Well, this is definitely Number Six. Even by chicken standards, she's a few cards short of a full deck...
