Susie-Q&A

• Jun. 12, 2009 - A Roost for the Chickens

First, hubby had to tear down a lot of stuff.  Hence, the piles.



Then you string some hot wire around the chicken yard.


More to be done to keep the chickens in, but this at least keeps predators out.


It's a pretty big chicken yard.

Everybody had to test the electric fencing--everybody except me, that is.  :)  The chickens were a bit taken unawares.  I'm told it was quite funny.

An entrance/exit:



Next, a window for a bit of ventilation and light.  More to be done on this as well, but in the meantime it's not so hot inside.



I can't remember what this is going to be when hubby's done.  Nesting boxes, I think?


The sliding door for the entrance/exit, rigged over pulleys across the ceiling.




Feeding time...



Hubby's going to do a lot more with it before it's over.  He's doing an excellent job, don't you think?

Happy clucks.
