both coops are 4x8 foot, and they grey coop is the only one with nesting boxes I would like to put a chicken moat between the two so they arnt confined between coops.
I know my coop doesn't look as fancy or beautiful like the rest of your coops but it's protected my chickens for more than three years so I think it deserves some recognition
I have fence under the dirt of my run floor so dogs and coons can dig all they want but they won't get in[COLOR=0000CD]If your chickens haven't been taken by predators by now than you better believe it's worth recognition! In your rural setting I can't believe you haven't had, at the least, stray dogs try to dig to the hens? We live in a city and 2 stray mutts broke our yard gate and mangled the cheap poultry chicken wire on our old little coop beyond repair but they couldn't dig under the paver stone foundation. A good neighbor chased off the mutts![/COLOR]
[COLOR=0000CD]Took us 5 years but we finally got a sturdier mobile Barn Coop, this time with heavy dog kennel wire:[/COLOR]
I also do the best with what I have. Be proud of what you have done, and improve when and how you can. But enjoy the chickens. We all can't afford the Ritz, but that doesn't mean we don't stop enjoying what we have. Keep up the good work we all enjoy other peoplestuff.
HAHAHA!Speaking of signs I got this one for the "Poultry Lady" at the farm/ranch I worked at before I retired. We had chickens, ducks, turkeys and even a couple of emu. She loved it!This is the same lady I get my hens from. I think i found this on ebay.
