BYC Café

Cat scratching post tower in progress. Also working on 2 other small projects, painted the inside of the workshop doors and made a solid cover with a hinge for one side of the bunny cage that has hardware cloth for summer but needs closed in for winter. So now open and close according to the temperature. 20171005_182237.jpg

You do keep yourself very Busy!
 
Insulation usually has paper backing, which mold loves. Did u not cover it with plywood to seal it in away from the chickens?
This is just straight pink fiberglass (which doesn't mould). We put up vapour barrier then plywood. The insulation goes into the eaves except for the 2 (Count it.TWO) holes that I was allowed to put in for ventilation. ONE article was read about someone who said they put in too much ventilation and all of their chickens died. If you ask me they probably had too many drafts, but because of that one stupid article I'm not allowed to properly ventilated. If my girls don't end up with severe frostbite this winter I will be amazed. Next spring I'm going to climb up on the roof and just cut the ridge off, raise it and create a ridge ventilation. Either that or I'll build a new bloody coop my way.

I added vents to my coop too! The plans did not call for enough
