Well actually I am kind of exhausted and I am broke. I won't be able to do too much just yet. I would love to work on the plumbing but I can't run the lines to the pens until I figure out where exactly the pens will go. My first priority I think is to get my brooding and hatching room ready. I am ready to get birds and incubators out of the house. I do have a sink and stuff to plumb in I could work on though. I also need to clean off the concrete. Lots of dirt and mud in there since it decided to rain while they were building. I am feeling I need a break of sorts for a day or two while I plan.
The company installs sliding doors or they will frame for garage doors but they don't hang garage doors. I am kind of glad. I bought my own garage door and got a higher quality insulated one to help reduce utility expenses. It would be nice if they installed it for me but I figure I can use the experience in case I ever build a garage proper. I hope some day I can come up with the money to do that.
I have tons of catch up work to do today as well.
I really do plan to use the building to keep my numbers down. I hope it works. I still don't like the idea I'm going to have to handle the game birds and turkeys outside.
Well at least you won't have as many pens to deal with outside even if you have to have the pheasants, peafowl, & turkeys out there.
I got all of my rabbits moved into the garage for colder weather the other day, so now it will be back to emptying trays again. I'm thinking of cutting down on my numbers in the spring. I have a couple of really cute male Mini Rex if anyone wants a pet or show rabbit. I also have a trio of lavender Ameraucanas a year old that I need to get rid of to put my new stock in that pen.
tweety you were posting when I was, yeah my DH was just glad the supervisor was along because she had a corporate credit card & took care of getting the rooms an extra night & booking flights & in the end the rental car. He said he would have been scrambling to get hold of someone at work to approve all of it.
