Hubby has been ill, so it was at a stand still, but started back up again. Here are where we are now. Everything we used (except a few 2x4's and the wire, we got for free. The 'siding' is old stockade fencing we cut to fit. Inside in all birch. Let me know what you think so far. We 'hope' to finish this week/weekend..even though we started day 1 of a 6 day heatwave (temps in the upper to high 90's). My babies need to get outside!!! lol It is 8'x6'x6' and the run is 8'x14'.

Love it! Love the use of the stockade fencing. Very nice!

 

[pappy1264]

Thank you! Should look nice when we finally finish it! lol

 

[pappy1264]

Not bad, considering it started from pallets!

Wow! Very nice. Are you planning on using hardware cloth on the windows? It's the best. How many chicks do you have?

 

[pappy1264]

Yes all windows will be covered with 1/2" hardware cloth. I have 10 (8 regular, 2 bantams, of those 2 are roos, rest are hens.) Thank you!
