Puglsy is maybe 7or 8 months now. He has to go back in the crate he crapped in three places in the room .. I pulled the rugs up not wanting them soiled put them back down.

Is it a big room?

I'm about 95% finished on my project. It's a monitor roof for the main part of the chicken run. I'll need DH's help to get it up there, probably on Saturday. Then I need to add the sheets of polycarbonate. I'll post pictures when it's all done. From far enough away that you can't see the edges that don't meet well.

Monitor roof?

3KillerBs has posted about her first coop that had a monitor roof.

That was what inspired me. Excellent venting for on hot summer days (I'll probably add a shade cloth too).

I want a solid roof over the run, but don't want to use tarps as I did last year, because it was dark and gloomy in there. I'm hoping the extra light will help my 17 week old pullets lay this fall/winter...
