Tonight's the night!!

Having been sickly for a while there we kind of got behind on our chicken building project... We've been making a big push to finish up the coop and run, and yesterday we did it... we even have an emergency latch release in case the door swings close and locks one of us in...

We let them run around in a 6x6 foot area we set up next to where we were working, and they seemed to just love it!





After work tonight we have two pieces of 2x4 to install in the door frame to use as a backstop, I'll fasten the chicken-wire roof to it, and we.... be.... done!!!





The girls are going out there tonight... plan is to go ahead and run a cord out there and bring along the heat lamp... the girls have been going without for over a week now but there first night our there it might be a comfort to them... or they couldn't care less - who knows...
