Day 9 - almost finished
Need to build two screens doors, put up outside door on my room side, add laying boxes, paint whatever isn’t barn red - barn red.

I forgot to add that we need to put a chicken door for run to outside AND finish the outside walls and door on my room end.
I will need to get door knob kit and some lights to hang inside and an outside light for under the porch.
We do plan to put up motion lights, as well.
But, the chicks are all inside now.
I didn’t get a picture of all of them inside.
Just when we were putting some of them inside.

That is AWESOME! I love it! Can your guys come build one for me? Mine is only 8 x 10 and I bought it off a lot. Chicken math, ya know?

Thank you! My son is in trade school working towards his electrician license. He finished building construction over a year ago. He wants to be a contractor.
So this gave him some practice planning and building.
I’ll send him over to ya!

Your son did an amazing job! I can see the appeal of painting the whole thing red, but the patchwork look is endearing in itself. What a fantastic space.
