O.K. Today started with hubby working in the garden. Today you can see a difference in the vegetables............Can't wait till harvest time!!!

Then we worked on the coop. Here is what we got done. Doesn't seem like much but we worked in wind gust up to 26 MPH today.

1st we started by putting on the tin roof supports.

We were not going to attempt to attach the tin roofing with the high winds we had today.

Then we started by fixing the boards that had cracked on me. Looks better. (I hammered them to hard)

Yes, the window broke but someone else done that.

Then we worked on finishing the back wall.

Then we finished the back wall with an over hang with air vents.

You can't see the wire but it is there to keep any predator out.

O.K. then we moved to the front on the coop and put up more wire fencing to keep out predators.

Then out came the vinyl for the front.

Then the door was framed on the outside.

I am still waiting for the steps.......waiting.......waiting.......waiting............................................

Someone's been really busy! The coop (and garden) is looking wonderful. I'm so impressed when people take so much time to build such beautiful hen houses.

Thanks Carla, We rely alot on our little garden and we will rely alot on the chicks for eggs in the future. So we take good care of both of them.
