    We started working on the Corral, and finishing up the Coop. We need to get the Corral enclosed (even if it isn't finished) by Saturday, because we are getting Jolie the Pygmy Goat then. I am a blessed man because I have a wife willing to get up there and nail in a tin roof. She did...

    It was good to get the Doors hung, and Mary was willing to test them out. Mary chose to goof off building the Back Wall between the Coop and the Run while I worked hard at taking pictures... March 12th was the 3 years of her dad passing away. He was a painter, and Mary had never painted in...

    So the rain finally let up and we got out to build. The first thing we did, was put in the floor to the chicken and goat house. This was too easy a job, so we moved to the fence on the roof to keep the Chicken Run Anti-Hawk After this, Mary left me for the day and I built the doors to the...

    Quote: The roof will be flat with the welded wire over it. I made two of the panels first, and the connecting one after they were up. (I will give that welded wire one thing... it kept everything square.) Newbie in Screamer Al, : Lookin Good!!!! You both built a good run. Do you have the...

    Yesterday, Mary and I started on the Chicken Run, and had it done by day's end. All there is to do is add the wire fencing to the top to keep hawks out. You can see the roll on the ground ready to go. The run is made with 4x4x8 PT Posts set 6 feet apart, and sunk in the ground 9 inches. They...
