Up over but soon down under

[philmate48]

Hi. I live in Switzerland but I hope to return to my native Australia soon, now that I am retired. I want to keep a small flock of Barnevelders in my backyard. I had chickens as a young chap. I guess that chickens are no smarter now than they were 50 years ago, and probably neither am I.

I am still trying to get the hang of the forum. I read a great article about building a coop at https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/8-x-16-coop-and-storage-room.63708/ but I was denied access to most of the images, and I can't work out how to get at them. The box that came up pushes me to establish a WordPress site or blog, but I don't want to do that. If someone can point me in the right direction to seeing the images I would be very grateful.

I tried to post a comment on that article about the problem but I got a message saying that I did not have sufficient privileges to post a comment.

Cheers, Phil

To Backyard Chickens!

That coop article has links embedded in the code. I opened it to edit but the wordpress site that the images tag too is closed to the public.

I added a comment for you

It looks like a very nice coop!

It's nice to have you here! Sorry about the article issue. There are a lot of nice coops here if you'd care to look at any others:

Congratulations on your retirement and best wishes with your flock plans.
