Regardless of price it would make an interesting coop

they are with the serama for now, in spring they will go in with the polish quad. Im afraid they will get out at the bottom of the fence, I need to put down some rocks or something along bottom as they scratched bad along the fenceline, chickens stay put but the pheasants pushed on it and flew away I saved the two in the coop and luckly a pair, I coulda cried seeing them fly so quickly from me.
The homing instinct must've been bred out of them. Also, if they went AWOL during their mating season, all bets are off.

No, but I do have an ancient toaster, part of a horse harness, bedsprings, more broken bottles than I can count, and several half tires out there

lol this certainly would be a winner in the most unusual upcycled Chicken feeder!

Tires turn and basic frame under the bed is fine. I've even used it as a trailer. Bed is rusty though and one of the tires doesn't hold air very well. So it's currently parked and not being used for anything.

I think painted in some better colors, say black or dark green truck with barn red topper or vice versa?

I like this color blue? or whatever

I really need to stop looking at colors or I will start yet another project uggggg
