Another Reason to Build a Full-Height Coop/Run

[Sueby]

Wow that's a big gash! I hope you're feeling ok today. They did a nice job with the staples.

I'm going to work today.

I put my hair into braids while my scalp was still numb last night so I could just pin the braids up and not have to comb it until tomorrow morning.

Actually the arm with the tetanus shot hurts worse at the moment.

Smart braiding it last night! Take it easy today.

Well, you probably have the most interesting water cooler story.

Ouch! I hope you heal fast. Agree about the tall ceilings. I'm short so I sometimes forget normal people have different experiences (like with our basement stairwell.....) I did build the coop tall enough for my tall husband to stand up in, even though he never goes in there.

Wow!
Rest up today, take it easy!

All I did was stand up just a little too far.

You must have stood up fast and hard to pop it open that far.
Looks to be ~3-4" long?
Yikes!

No, only half that -- 1.5-2".

I suppose I stood up fast, but only from bent over at the waist to look into the spot between that concrete block perch support and the wall to hunched over -- since I know very well how low that ceiling is.

But the hook was lurking in ambush.

I've been at work today, glad to have something to think about other than my headache.

The headache has mostly receded, but returned when I bent over to clear a few weeds from around my young watermelon plants. So no more weeding today.

Sounds like you hit that a lot harder than initially thought.

Try not to over do it.
