Thank you very much! That is exactly what they were saying. I was so funny watching them.

Very nice, love the doors thanks for taking the time to share your accomplishment through pictures

Edited to add: Oh and a question.... what did you put in your dust bath? My chickens are semi confined until we can complete the run as they have started trying to fly off when we let them out under supervision, so I was thinking about taking an old cat litter box in my garage and giving them something to dust bathe in inside the coop until we are finished with the run. I have DE powder but not sure what else I should add to it. Thanks in advance.

It took me a while to figure out what was in that bin. That is hysterical!!

Since we live in FL, I just took some sand out of the yard and mixed DE in with it. They we so funny when I first put it in there. They all acted like it was going to eat them. But I kept sitting chickens in it and they would immediately hop out. Finally the little black rooster figured it out and loved it. Then a couple more chickens got in. Well that is all the Guineas had to see. The jumped in and pushed all the chickens out and had a great time. All 8 Guineas climbed in and then a couple chickens tried to get in at the same time. It was funny.
