    I turned my old lawnmower shed into a chicken barn. It isn't fancy but will do the job.

    In a few years, we will replace our garage and when that happens, I will take all that lumber and build a new chicken barn. :cool:

    I see lots of air vents!
    Will that keep the roof from rotting?

    Gives it good air glow to let hot air escape to keep the interior temperature down.

    I was thinking the same thing until I saw he's from AZ - needs the air flow for that type of heat.

    I was going to make a smart comment about Arizona really getting rain? Instead I will say how nice it looks especially with that neat pathway leading up to it.

    Thanks. Summer monsoons bring tons of rain, northern Arizona gets it as much as the desert in the south. Flash flood warnings are not unusual at certain times year.
