Here's a photo..I think mine is more wide. I wish I had gone l

ess wide. I also wish you lived closer..you could have done mine!

Oh my goodness! I swear that's the same thing I just put in my bathroom.

Well there you go. Isn't that funny.

Mrs BY Bob is thrilled and it is chicken proof. I expect we will see more hens in the dining room now. Especially Phyllis!

That does seem more wide. I think our light to dark is more dramatic as well. But very close.

Construction done

This for you @RoyalChick

The Construction project is done. Here is the new dining room floor. I need to redo all the trim but the floor is in.

WOW. That is a handsome floor (even without Éowyn as an accessory!). I am also in awe at your skill. Very nicely done!

Yes I was thinking that too, and looking on Amazon, but lean now towards just housing them in an extra stall for summer - I can then put a huge box fan in there like I have for the horses.

Oh thanks for the suggestion on the filter screen to keep feathers etc at bay never thought of that!!

I take it you had the south facing window issue? The hen house is in the northwest corner of my barn windows on West and north side but it will be a sauna in there come summer - Ontario summers are hot hazy and humid . Winter's cold snowy and overcast miserable .

Oh I can't way for summer I suffer so with the cold, my arthritis is horrible, it hilarious I am sure trying to run after my chickies when I am so stiff hahaha.

Whining tax for the weather whining:

This is Misty at a couple weeks age, now she is grown and lays lovely green/blue eggs

Oh no!!! There’s a weather whining tax now too! And My… Bob has collected quite a few Canucks while I was AWOL! Still outnumbered by the Aussies though!

 

[Kris5902]

And a flooring tax??? Glad I took a lot of chicken pics today! Free camper project flooring is also a match! Lol


And we had a catastrophic loading failure


But it’s ok now on some pallets and out of the way again. Flooring Tax… lol

Your are very kind. Prep was a lot harder than I expected. Proper prep makes everything work easier. Since this house was built in the 70s there has been a lot of carpet put down in that room. I had to remove every staple they ever put in before I could lay the new floor. It was a bear.

We are trying to branch out. The Aussies have outnumbered us for a long time.
