Thanks! The wife is complaining about how long its taking LOL.
Now we are in fair week so almost nothing gonna happen this week. Kids are in FFA and we have quail in the fair so every day is busy...hoping to get run installed this week and closed in so chickens can move outside while I finish it.

Had some time from fair so started working on the roof and the run...need to get my chickens out here so run is gonna be finished first so they can hang out with me while I do the trim work and install doors.

How much is this costing you? Beautiful work!

I'm about 700.00 into now not counting any tools I picked up (i obviously needed them anyway!)

I'm guessing it will be 1000.00 when done since i need few more pieces of lumber for run and the hardware for door, etc...

The hardware cloth I bought on Amazon on a daily special (if you search stuff, they put it on sale later)

So I managed to get 100 feet of 1/2" x48" for 100.00

Running out of daylight but managed to get one window screened..

Managed to get all three windows screened and framed. Ran out of finish nails so have to finish one board tomorrow...

 

[Iammister]

Managed to get the run framed up and one side partially screened. Ran out of daylight.




Chickens hang out and watch while I work..

Looking pretty good!

Is that big opening on the run side of coop your only access for cleaning?
