I don't get help from hubby, cuz they're "MY" birds, and he doesn't want anything to do with them...so...since I decided the Faverolles need a new coop and run, where they can be all together, and not scattered about the yard in temporary pens, I started construction today. My niece did help me clear the ivy from the area the other day, but other than that, it's all me...
This first pic is the area, all cleared and ready for construction..
This is the end of day 1...Flooring is down (I know it's ideal to have framing down below, with space between the ground and the floor, but it's just not gonna happen) and corner posts are up. Over on the left is the old horse-trough that I cut in half and with a few adjustments, it will be the nest-boxes...
