Yet Another Chicken Coop!

[Molpet]

I use to get poison ivy just walking by it when it was hot and humid and the oils vaporize in the air. I then read about 'rhus tox 30x' and took 4 pills under the tongue several times a day starting in the spring until the snow was too deep to work outside. Also when I knew I got into it I would wash with some kind of grease cutter for 2 minutes.
I only had a few bumps for at least a decade...Until a couple weeks ago.. I had forgotten to take the rhus tox for a couple of weeks and didn't pay attention when I took a stray possum across the creek ( should of just shot him instead of harassing him, but he wasn't in the poultry yard}
This out break I started taking the rhus tox and washed everything I had worn or touched since the possum in grease cutter. Alternated with 'tecnu' https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/t...d6162728-product?ext=gooKBM_PLA_-_Health_Care
and super ivydry https://www.amazon.com/Super-Size-Itch-Relieving-Spray/dp/B001V9QW2E
Nowhere as bad of an outbreak compared to years past.

I screwed up and didn't cut the boards for the door before i painted them. I was going to fix it, but hubby put it up as is. Maybe it will grow on me?
Tonight i put up more perches and stapled on more hardware cloth. Screwed two boards together to staple the welded wire to in run #2. Hope to do the stapling tomorrow.

Stapling done, now i need more 5' welded wire. Hubby is going to town Friday so i will get it then.

Are they laying yet? A couple look pretty close, if they aren’t yet.

Nope, not yet. There was a lot of yelling down that way today, maybe they are warming up.
I hung the waterers and one feeder today in the new coop. Helps keep the water clean. I need to build a feeder for the CL side.
