Raise the roof!

FINALLY... some nice weather. After a snowy week, we are thrilled to have had a couple of nice days in a row. Yesterday we got the girls out of their box for awhile and they seemed to enjoy their new stomping grounds under the trampoline. They're good sports when Gavin chases them, but they're not so accommodating that they actually listen to him when he says "STOP chicken!" Brandon has been working hard on the chicken house. The roof is finished, and three of the four walls and the nest boxes are up and insulated. The small door that Gavin is poking his head through will be the "pop door", which will lead from the house to the screened-in run via a ramp. We will put a door in one of the screen walls to access the run. The4th side of the chicken house (the side that's not yet installed) will have a large access door that we can use to refill their food and water and to clean the house out. We haven't figured out yet what we're going to use for doors - hence the wide open space. To see more photos, click here.
