Yep, there are 25 6 week old Black Australorps in there. I know that it's too many chickens for that size coop. I will split them up between my other two coops in a few weeks.

We finished our new coop today. Weeew.. It was a job. It doesn't look nearly as good as yours, but you can't be the cost on it. All the lumber was free, all the metal was free. The nest box is one we wasn't using. The window was free. Even the metal screws were free. I had to buy some wood screws and the chickens. We needed a pen of hens for eating eggs. I have breeds that I sell, but none just for us to eat. So I will try to post the pics on here tomorrow.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

I wish there was a way to upload pictures from my phone. It would be so much easier. I don't use my actual camera much anymore. But I will get those pics on here sooner or later.

1. e-mail the pictures to yourself with your phone, 2. download to your computer from your e-mail, 3. upload to BYC. Good Luck!

I'm having trouble loading the pictures like that. It says it is a different type of file. So when I figure it out, I will get them on here. Mine isn't a truck cap. But recycle lumber, metal and nest boxes.

I wish I had a truck cap though.

Hey oberhaslikid, that second picture actually looks like a truck bed. Is it?

Creed, I think I finally got it.. It now has a roof and a few more things. Including chickens.. Now that I figured out how to resave the images, under the right file type. I will post more later.. Yay!

Also across the top, above the window. There is plexi-glass.. All free materials, except screws and hinges..
