    Looks much better than my shed too - just wasn't going to admit that until someone else did

    Should be an interesting night with the pecking order. Let them in the run together first? Be an interesting video to see what happens.

    Normally yes... One will be single out... but so far every time I've seen them the big one's are outside and the little ones are inside... And some of it depends on your older hens... If they be old and grouchy.... :hair::wacky:

    Well, after the g2g, we had a scheduled zoning board meeting in town. I applied for a setback variance a month or so ago and it finally got approved. Now for the pole barn build. I need to dig 12 footers, did 2 so far after work. Ran into a huge boulder on the 3rd hole, so called it a night.

    Too bad you couldn't get the variance before the G2G - I'm sure a few of us could have been put to work.

    Yea, maybe dress up like the amish and get it up in a day, while the ladies serve lemonade? That would've been great!
