its not to bad....we are making a poo window....lol...basically when we need to empty the tank the window opens the tube goes in and down the hole...the birds go into the shelter...once done then the window goes back shut...minimal issues with the birds...lol...and even tho we dug in each pen to find it...not one of the birds seem to be bothered really...even the lady amherst laid their first egg..and ofcourse we had to crack it and it was fertile...really going to try and spend some time to capture some more good pics...but well see been super busy....also the egg count for the pheasants is at 70 now
 
Thank you birdman.

I set 14 ringneck from the kids a couple of hours ago. Plus one I set the day after I got them home, if your trying to fill your bater let me know I'll have extra now, I'm expecting Turkey eggs
So I have to leave space in mine.

Great pictures! :D
 
well the poo guy just left...so got that out of the way...he told me i should move the pens....i guess they push the frost line down farther when you have birds over something like that...so im looking for where im going to put them...lol...that was a bunch of wasted time...bummer...but whatevs...cant change it until i build more coops...so we shall see where i am going to put them...prolly going to have to tear them down and build hoop coops for now...well see you guys in a bit
