Pine yes, Cedar no, otherwise it looks to me like you did well! The next picture you spend the day uploading should be your hens in their new home! Yay!!!DSCF0015_zps6e59f200.jpg.html
There is the little coop from Tractor Supply online. Sitting on the raised "lean to" frame I built against the shed with scrap pieces of 2x4 and old metal shelving corner posts as supports. The wire laying down will be the 10' skirting buried and up to framing as a predator digging guard.
For now I put womanized plywood over the frame and set the coop on that. Filled the covered end with straw and the nesting boxes. I have cedar chips/shavings... should I put that in the fresh air part for now?
Plan will be to keep them (only 3 RIR 3 year olds) in that cramped little thing (toted as 8 chicken coop) until I get a sufficient protected run finished. Then they will know where to go back to. And I will turn the platform into a lean to coop and use the TSC as a quarantine pen or a lockdown unit if I can expand later.
Will take more pictures today but it took this dial up an hour to get that one shot uploaded!!! But there is the beginning efforts of this poor womans housing attempts for quick temp housing for the chickens.
Already have the heated water bottle, and organic laying feed, epsom salts, bag balm, chicken probiotic/electrolites, yogurt..AND My .22 is ready for any attempting possums or raccoons breakin.
Pray for me I do this right. I can not afford vet bills. I must learn the natural methods and do everything myself. Well, too late to turn back now!! Chickens are being brought over on Monday!!! I hope she approves of my set up plans for her 'pets'.
Sorry for long thread..... am excited but very, very nervous in this new endeavor. Questions will be forth coming after I get them to be sure I acess their incoming health correctly and also to keep or make them healthy.
