GREAT setup for sure! I especially like their swing!

Bruce, rails are looking nice. Hopefully you won't have much use for them, though.

I have seen people build a chunnel.... Chicken Tunnel.... made of Chicken wire or hardware cloth and one by ones... a triangle frame would work great.... or short t Posts covered with wire

That chicken chunnel would work great if he's just threading it out to a fenced in run area. But if its out to a wide open area its going to be kinda hard to have his chickens always using the chunnel to get back to the coop. They could always just wander another way back to the coop and just squawk a lot outside of the coop upset that they can't get in

Well the think is that between that building and the area theres a road leads to the last house my uncles house and he is a bit old so i dont want to cause him and discomfort and i was thinking that maybe i can leave the chickens running and then put them back at night but it wories me about the egg production!!

Not the best photo, as I was trying to capture the run we just built. My dad helped me turn an old structure on our property into an 8x10 coop. My mom used pickets from the fence we tore down, but hasn't finished painting them yet.
Simple, easy to construct. Opposite side has water collection system for nipple waterers and laying boxes are accessible from that side, however the chickens never lay there!

So, I said I'd post a picture of my feeder not cleaned up - when they've been eating out it for a week, and it's as messy as it gets. Here it is close and closer.





As you can see, it doesn't fill up to the 'roof' of the horizontal piece. It was lower on the sides before I tapped the upright pipe pieces. There's a little bit of dusting on the top of the pipe, and a little bit of feed on the floor just under the feeder. That's a week's worth of mess, and it's less than a 1/4 cup, maybe only a teaspoon. I don't have a picture showing the girls eating, but standing on the floor, they can't reach inside without stretching a bit, and the level of feed inside is too low for them to get a lot of it and send it flying. Also, it holds about 25 lbs. of crumb (we're still on starter due to the No Eggs status here), and this past week has lowered the level in the uprights less than 1/3 of the way down, so possible 2 more weeks before I need to refill.

You guys have built some incredible coops! Nicer than most houses for sure! I'm trying to
Load up pictures of my coop, not sire if its working. I put pieces of siding inside so there were fewer corners to clean out. M
