Cetawin, this is coming along soooo nicely! I am really excited to see the final product. I bet your chooks will be a happy, healthy bunch year-round

Wonderful work you all put into it. I'm so impressed!

 

[Cetawin]

Ah yes I shall continue the updates as they become available. hehehehehe


You ladies will love this...maybe some of the guys too. I am trying to decide what fabric to make curtains out of ....I want to make a lined curtain to go over the two windows for winter...and of course cute pull backs for summer.

Really COOL! Big coop too!

Ah, the priming has been done. Wow, you do not realize how short you are until you try putting primer on an 8' wall with a brush.

at 5' 2.5" (yes, that half-inch counts dang it) tall, I finally had to break out the ladder for everything above 6'.

Updated pics below. The plan: tomorrow begin painting interior, cut ventilation spots on the roofline and covered with hardwire cloth, hopefully get flooring down and get the guys working on the run.


Took a break to take pics...

See I am kinda short I stretched as far as I could before getting the ladder

Whew! I hope these girlies appreciate this fortress. More updates hopefully tomorrow! Yay!

I dont know what I like better..... the coop..... or the surroundings! Gees thats a pretty backdrop. I wish we had pine trees around here!

eeeeeeeeewwwwwww I cut out a lot of the smaller pines. I will post pics. I cannot stand those sap dripping, needle dropping things. LOL There are maples, madrone and oak around the coop so they still got stuff. The manzanita is around the run in places.
