Well, Here it is. At long last, we've got a working coop. Carole was out yesterday to add a bit of trim and decoration, and we plan to add a few pieces of wood across the sides of the rooster's play yard -- Bam Bam, Pebbles, Rambo, Rocky, Annie, and Arnold like to rub up against the chicken wire, so to add some strength and stability, we'll add the cross bars. Thanks to everyone who participated in this fun endeavor.
Cheryl and I went into Russell Crow's pen yesterday and Cheryl managed to pick him up and settle him into his roosting box. He squawked and scratched at the box until he foun
d his way out into the wired play area. He seemed quite content, crowing and eating in his n
ew space.We've also received a new chicken, who is absolutely adorable! She's quite friendly and acts more as if she was someone's pet. She's a little shy around the other chickens, but we're hoping that she feels at home soon. So, all that's left is for the chickens to start using their new digs! We expect it will take a week or so for them to get used to the coop and feel comfortable walking up and down the attached ramp.
Stop by and take a look at this great new addition to keep our chickens safe and healthy!
