Well the coop is home! Had a little tire trouble on the way home but thankfully it was a short trip and didn’t go totally flat until I got in front of my house. But it did make it impossible for me to get it backed into the driveway with the truck so I had to get the tractor and finish the job...

Well it’s almost there! Just need to finish up some battens on the end walls and build the deck for the water tank and it will be ready for paint. I’ve got the roost bars mapped out in my head and will get to work on those after we get the inside painted up. Order the pullet shut auto door the...

Some more progress.... https://photos.app.goo.gl/hwcD1VwGtIKWccqD2 https://photos.app.goo.gl/NgwPoPxKea4AQIwG2 Rain in the forecast for tomorrow. Going to set me back another day. But at least it’s closed in. Hoping to have it ready for paint by the weekend.

Productive weekend here at the farm. Siding boards are up, windows and doors in, roof on. Just need to finish up a few odds and ends tomorrow and it will be ready for paint. Going with barn red on the outside and will trim the windows and doors in white paint to make it look nice. Going to...

Well progress stalled out a bit due to the weather turning back towards winter. But I’m glad to say that I finished up the framing this past weekend. Now onto the metal roof, windows and siding. Most all those materials will be picked up throughout the week and hopefully accomplish at least the...

O and I almost forgot to mention nest boxes. Instead of traditional style boxes we are going to spring for some rollaway boxes by hengear. https://hengear.com/ Will most likely mount these against the front or back walls, maybe both. We don’t want to spend a lot of time cleaning eggs so this...

At the moment I don’t plan on using this for winter housing. I have another coop and run already that I can move them into. I’ve got heated waterers in the other coop already. The upload a file button is the one I’m hitting, but it says my iPhone contains no pictures. Not sure how to fix that...

Sorry for the pics being in links! I’m on my iPhone and can’t get pics to upload straight to this site. Everytime I click on upload a file it tells me I have no pictures on my phone!? I just spent the better part of an hour searching for a good place to upload pics to that would allow me to...

Hello everyone. I just wanted to share some pics of a new mobile pasture coop I’m working on that will house the 100 new chicks we have growing in our living room at the moment! Lol. Winter has really dragged itself out this year here in upstate NY so it’s been too cold to have the chicks in the...
