Large, Open-Air Coop in Central NC

Pics
We now have a completely wired perimeter, perches and a ramp up to the perches/nestboxes.

I had him make the perches just below my shoulder height at the highest so that I could conveniently take birds off the roost at night for checks.

The ramp is about a 35-38-degree angle. I checked it with a protractor.
 
Having a break after moving coop furniture. I had no idea how many concrete blocks I've been using!

I've moved the largest waterer and the blocks to sit it on, one feeder, one pallet, and the juvenile roost assembly -- which consists of the 3 biggest concrete blocks I have, 2 bricks, and 2 of those roughly 3x3 pieces of wood with the deep groove that you sometimes get with pallets to hold the strapping off the product.
 
That's good...I kinda figured, but had to say something. :oops:

Yes, of course.

My husband doesn't like having the metal around because he's worried about klutzy me getting cut. But right buying exterior-grade plywood for dividers and screens instead of my random roofing scraps is not in-budget.

(You might live in the rural south if your doctor notices a gash on your shin, asks what happened, and doesn't blink when you answer "I tripped over a trailer tongue.")
