I had to chuckle when I read your comment. I grew up the daughter of a Mechanic. My dad owned an auto repair shop with his brothers. Our cars were always the last to be repaired. My husband is an automotive designer by day, and he also owns a side business where he is a builder. I don't even want to admit to how long it has been taking him to complete our coop. It will be nice one day, because he is very good at carpentry, but the bottom line is.....some day.
It stands to reason that poor fireraven with the electrician husband, will be using extension cords for some time. Just like the shoe salesman who's kids always had holes in their shoes.

You hit the nail on the head with that one! I told him tonight that he needed to get something out there because I was NOT trudging through the snow every couple hours to get them more water come winter. We just redid the coop. Buttoned up all the holes, filled in all the cracks and insulated it well but I'm sure it's still going to get cold. Oh and I forgot to mention that my brother in laws quail in habit the same coop. They have they're own coop within the chicken coop, but I have to worry about them too!
You may want to go to the link here before winter hits. I learned a lot from it. We are heading into our first winter with chickens ourselves, and we heeded the advice for ventilation in winter. Have a great night! I'm sorry about hijacking the post earlier with Gale.
