Just stained and got window in. Have a couple solar hanging lamps cause theres very short daylight hours in winter up here in the Yukon.

Yeah, its not insulated but i do have a bunch of sawdust stuffed behind the lower pieces of plywood inside and I,m doing the deep litter method on the floor. Its an 8 by 10 coop and when the last meat hens are gone this weekend the 11 layers and 2 roosters



will have the whole place to themselves. I did have 32 meat hens in the beginning. Slaughtered 20 last Saturday. Now things are much quieter at feeding time. Its nice cause I'm not constantly having to fill their water and easier on the feed bill.

My husband went sheep hunting yesterday and snapped that pic. Thats the Wheaton river running into Bennet lake. We live in the southern Yukon territory.

Great Idea for a name on the lodge.
