If anyone in the East Texas area might be interested I have a perfectly operating Ador automatic door for sale. They are currently close to $300 and I will sell it for $150. If you buy the door I will give you five gentle Black Australorp hens about 21/2 years old. 4 plastic waterers. 2...
Since it is warmer I decided to return to restoring some cast iron. Was working on a piece for cornbread sticks and then returned it to the electrolysis vat. Hen started singing so since I had to go by the coop I decided to retrieve the egg. I had a gate latch on the coop door. So I go in and...
Finally got hardware cloth up. After painting rafter liked the farmhouse look and didn’t want to cover it so did this inside. Put a drip cap on decking edge so didn’t have to paint it.
Good luck with your chicks! Just a small group of chickens here. 5 to be exact. Had larger in past. Know Saginaw well. Been there many times. Have relatives that live near there and a cousin that teaches there. When I lived in Fort Worth it was just a wide spot in road. Used to fish and watch...
