Gosh! I didn't mean it that way. I ought to proof my posts before clicking Submit. I should have said something about wild horses and then I would have been understood

FIL has had health problems lately, so I must have hospitals on my mind. He had kidney surgery with complications, which was followed by pneumonia and then heart problems. He's home, but he's not doing well. Prayers would be appreciated.

You need to post some pictures or I will plan to come by your house while at the Shawnee show! Oh by the way we have changed our mind & won't be showing but will be there Sat to visit & see everyone. Who else is planning to be there? Are there any plans to meet up?

It is a very simple Plan, I am going to revise and make it even easier as a 12 hole cnditioning / bantam breeder pen. Even at that it will still only be 5 4x8 sheets of OSB, and 6 8ft 1x6. Some screws and hinges.

Plans for the 12 Hole

PoCo you will proably have to work on tameing the goats down when they come back. They will be untrusting after their travel experiences.

Sooner ,yes I would still like them and promise to get with you on the next trip back if you can hold them. If you need the space tho I will understand. We may be back in Dec. Depends on whats going to happen with the MIL> Looks like a family fight may be brewing over her. Greed can be a dirty thing!

Aw gee Joe I thought for sure you would fall for that!he!he! I'm sure he does have a permanent home,glad to hear you are already hatching them.I'll have to get with you when I'm back there. So after all the culling and cutting back, what breeds do you have now?

Cowboy can't wait to see what you have come up with! Sounds like you are going to be busy building more pens!lol

Everything is saved on my PC, I draw it, plan it make it. Then figure out what I can different, sell the first one and do it again. Then share the plans and pics. But that way you can tell me how wide and tall the door is, where it will go etc. I modify the drawing and plans and material list then send it to you.. would that work better?

After thinking about that I would actually hinge something on the back to allow for summer airflow and winter wind block. But yes it can be done..

 

[Sooner]

I won't be ready for it until the building is done. Are those 1x4's you are using or 2x4's? I have 2x4 aplenty. I am thinking for the new chicken building.

Wayne at this point I can still hang on to them, what i have planned will keep me busy.

If I build me 2 12 hole pens I could really consolodate and use the a-frames for grow out and really make life easier. with even fewer birds.. 24 holes 4 birds each would be 100 birds. yep thats less, and no cold wind or snow.. I'm likeing this idea now.
