Coop building today

[Keltara]

Almost done... Girls Can move in tomorrow, if I keep an eye our during their outside time (missing a part of the outdoor roof area.)

It's looking wonderful! Are you going to be able to free range your girls at all?? I just loving looking out my windows and seeing my pretty Henny Penny's happily foraging for bugs and greens. And they are so happy as well. I hope your girls get to free range.

I hope to, but we have to fix or fence... the neighbors dogs would love to eat them. + our oldest are only 7weeks old today.

Yes, fixing that fence is definitely priority number one! Once you get that done, your girls are already big enough to free range. Mine were 7 weeks when they started free ranging and they did very well! With my first brood of chicks, we only free ranged them while the kids or myself were outside. But when we got our second batch of chicks, they were out and free ranging all day at 7 weeks. But you'll know what is good for you and what you are comfortable with. ✿◠‿◠

I do have a small portable run I can put them in while I am out there and they love that. It's only 4x4 & 2' tall, but it works for the 2 girls.
