You did Whuuut?

Enclosed cat litter boxes make the best 'broody' boxes. You can move the box with hen and eggs intact, and hens rarely break broodiness.

I'm not planning on breeding unless the world goes completely to pot or we get a much bigger garden, so I hope none of them go broody!

I used playhouses and dog

houses for my birds to sleep and lay. Also used cat sand buckets for my birds to lay there eggs.

Lots of great ideas, folks!

Keep 'em coming!

We had rain all weekend, so I didn't get an progress made on my coop addition. But hoping this evening after work.

Hubby gave me use of some old tongue-n-groove boards for the floor of the last house left to build. These things are 4' long sections, 7" wide, but like 3" or 4" thick! I have no idea what they were used for originally. I've never seen hardwood flooring this thick, so maybe they were designed for walls.... Oooooh, I wonder if I have enough to make their house look like a log home with them....

Oh... I almost forgot. We replaced carpet flooring in my husband's office, which is a section of my garage. We removed the carpet and laid ceramic tile. There was a 3' x 6' section of ceramic tile already there, it was on one piece of concrete backer board, so we removed it in one piece. He wanted to trash it, I wanted to save it. So now its the floor in the first additional house I've already done. Its a matte finish, so I hope it isn't too slick. I'll have to find a rubber mat or something to put on it if it is.

I'll get some pics tonight.
