This was built in 1942 by my DH's grandfather. (the cement was dated) They used to raise hogs. Now it was mostly used for storage until I decided I needed guineas. Concrete walls and floor. The birds will survive any storms

4' fence around one outside stall. It was covered until the keets got big

The second stall that will be my brooder, I havnt put the side walls up yet. When I dont have chicks the two stalls will become one and I will move on the 3rd stall

I just hope the chickens like it. I plan on putting nesting boxes along the far wall of the 2nd stall when they become one large area.

At work they were going to burn some wooden shipping crates. I snagged them just in time, i think they will make good nesting boxes.
 
that looks like one great barn for guineas. with a cement floor and it looks like skylights too they could not get anything better.
