GopherBoy Farms Original Coop (addition 1/19/2009)

[GopherBoyFarms]

today we got great weather... almost 70degrees so we went to Goodwill and got a GREAT fan for $3.00. It was installed on the back wall and plugged into one of the ceiling outlets that is controlled by a pull cord. (Pull cord is fashioned with one of BeaverGirls antique glass drawer pulls)

We have vents that open or lock on both sides of the coop so the fan will circulate nice breeze through the coop

ok...I need to still paint the trimm on this vent

We are finished (I think)
Here are the final pics

This is the boy child nailing the rungs on the chicken ramp

Here it is installed

And Queeny looking out

Nest boxes

They need straw in them (but dont think the girls will be laying any eggs just yet)

The chickens have a beautiful porch, really nice porch light and motion sensor flood lights

I think it was well worth it.....we think it turned out GREAT!

Well after reading this for all this time. I am envious of all the work you did as a family. I really enjoyed watching it be put together and I wish you a lot of luck with them. I think it looks like a little church.

Did you make the nest boxes?

This has been a wonderful experience! I hope you continue to post even though your coop is done. You all seem to be a very tight, fun loving family and God will continue to bless you all. Thank you for adding humor to my life daily.
