Coop? Not Yet, but a brooder that our chicks LOVE! (Pics Included)

Sandrachx,

Our waterer is setup on a galvanized trash can lid (turned upside down). The lip of the lid helps to contain any water spills and although it minimizes the amount of pine shavings in their water, we still need to clean it out at least once a day.

arwmommy,

Thanks for the info on the Boorder Thread (Sticky), I didn't realize that even existed. So as requested I just copied my posting over there. Click here to go to it.

Guess what????
Yesterday I showed DH the photos on this post---- and wanna know what I came home to after work tonight??? The beginnings of a brand new brooder similar in design to this one!!! It's mostly done- we need hardware cloth and to make a few adjustments- but it's awesome!!! I'll post pics in a new thread when it's done!! He made it square, not rectangle, and it can easily come apart to come in the house, on the sunporch or down in the barn!
I'm so thrilled

!!!!
