Forgot to mention that I ordered some peepers on Ebay. 10 with the pliers for about $14. Seems like a good deal compared to others I saw online.

Yesterday I spent the whole day making a poop box and filling in the run with pea gravel. I literally lifted more than a ton. Twelve 50lb. bags(wet) of pea gravel onto the cart, again into the car, again out of the car into a wheelbarrow. Eight went straight to the coop from there. Four went to the back porch while I completed the poop box. Then 3 went into it. That is a lot of lifting for this old man.
Why, what are chicken blinders for?
