Here are the pics. Looks gross with snow/lack of snow and mud... but cuter come summer when I plant swiss chard all the way around for them to munch!
Any advice on colors is appreciated!

Really cute, and I love the quilt! If this were mine, I would make simple shutters and a small window box, and paint them the maroon color that is in the quilt. I would also paint the door and the pop door to the coop. We painted our doors white, but they do get pretty dirty. I'm sure it will look great no matter what you do.

Quote: I put newspaper in the bottom and set them in. They were really calm about it. Good chickies!

Kristip...cutest thing ever....I love the green...not that ugly packr green...a pretty kelly green that the swiss chard would look pretty against.
Judge super cute photo...
I need to g back and read up on everyone...but I had to write that my baby ducks arrived today! OMG...baby ducks have to be the cutest. (This statement holds true for the next 24hrs...after that it wll self destruct...because by then I'll be saying...where the heck did all this poop come from!)
I will post photo's tonight...I have 5 Khaki..and 17 BEI's. Love my little new peeps...Oh..and I have 3 new LF cochin hens my friend gave me. They are quarantineed in the coop. Amery is going to LOVE his pretty new Big girls...and it will give those two old buff biddies something new to complain about....waiting for DD6 to get off bus to see babies...can't wait!

OMG,,,kris that coop is already "Ollie" green,,,(don't tell Jim it will make him happy)

Well of course I strive to keep Jim happy, but looking to add some other colors!

LOL I also love green and gold with a splash of white or believe it or not purple looks awsum with the other colors, though I really ain't a packer fan nor football of any kind in general, the only sports we like are hunting, fishing, camping and horse jumping or car races and such....... I know we really ain't cheese heads, but whatever I do enjoy the Packer bears game because it always has at least 1 fight LOL........
Cute coop....... and as long as we are posting pictures I don't think I even posted my brooder coop after it was finished, as you can see I like bright colors, or camo, so didn't have the camo colors so went with bright ones....... mauve, purple, blue......... then painted my diamond with a rooster

PS ya could camouflage the pen fence by planting a climbing vine around it, like honey suckle, or something berry for the chickens, then it would look like an arbor, or something.......and the chickens would be very happy............LOL I think even grapes would work, I don't think they are poisonous to birds...

Yeah, Jim likes the color Ollie green so much, he paints his tractor everything BUT.

Well of course I strive to keep Jim happy, but looking to add some other colors!

Hi all!
I think Judge has a good idea with the flower boxes and painting the door to match the quilt. I actually think it looks pretty good as it is...but not much of my stuff actually has paint on it! (including the house...)
I got the shower fixed today...MXM and I went to Menards and got the right stuff and (get this) I ACTUALLY DID IT AND FINISHED THE PROJECT!

I am taking a bow...it is a miracle!

My son's friends are having their baby tonight! She went in and they are going to induce her I guess. She has been on bed rest for a month. I am praying for a good outcome.

Itis starting to smell like the ribs are getting close to done...we didnt have them last night so they are on tonight's menu. Better go and check them!

Carol--this is where I put the eggs you gave me...I think it is too late for them though....
