Good Heaters?

From last year.

These are old images,

Ah, yes, I remember these!
You should put together a coop page.

We originally insulated our walls with cardboard but we must have done it badly. Birds built a nest at the top of one wall and their babies fell behind the cardboard. So we took that panel out to rescue the baby. Then we had problems with black rat snakes hiding behind the cardboard and sneaking out to eat eggs! So all the cardboard is down now. The chickens are fine, it stays dry in there and our winters are not extreme.

Once the old coop has been reassembled in its new spot, I'll do that. We actually sold the old place lock, stock and barrel back in February and bought a smaller place on hwy 24, the fishing highway!

Just 105 acres and we only kept the dog, the coop/greenhouse and the hens, only I'm just recently getting around to dealing with bashing the new place into shape.

But I reckon we're gonna fetch the mule and the mare back. I miss going camping in the bush with them. Just ain't the same on a quad.

Gad zooks! Did you glue and screw them? I used silicone and roofing screws that have washers and even after sawing parts of the coop up it is still holding fast.

Mind you, nothing gets into our coop besides chickens. It would take a week for some dedicated critter with tin- snips for teeth to gnaw through it. I kinda over built it...

Ah, so THAT's how it's done!
