Building the truses
Putting up truses
All the truses
Girls watching
This is what it looks like inside
Putting the header in for the door
This is the reason the coop looks funny,because of the these tall doors,but I really wanted them for the light and the sun in the winter,
Suppose to rain the next few ays so had to cover the roof up no shingles on it yet
I don't think it looks funny at all, it's great!! Lucky chicks to be living in that coop!
No work yesterday it rained all day.
It won't stop raining here either. Looking forward to more pics of your coop wen the weather clears up!
STILL RAINING!! Nothing to report
They are doing an awesome job!
I was hoping your weather was better and was looking forward to pics!
Still raining here too - need to get the new little coop delivered but no chance of that in this weather! It's been solid rain all day, the past week actually. Right now it's raining so hard the back yard looks like a lake even at night. Enough! Some of the flowers I planted are rotting in the ground.
I just read in the newsletter of the Texas and SW Cattle Raisers Association that over the long term rainfall is increasing in the US. Some of you may find that a lot easier to believe than we do here. So far this year we have had less than 2" of rain - total - and most of that was in January.
Wish there were some way to spread the rain evenly to everyone!
No kidding!
Ok pictures up in my thread new house of the new coop...
Dh went next door and got carpenter boy and they got a lot done in the afternoon,he stayed for supper and they worked untill dusk,made him prominise to come back today said he would,but its raining a little this morning.
This is the front almost done just have to do the trim boardsmbut this is some of what I`ll do to the front
This side,got the tar paper on the roof and the back filled in,and the inspector is still on the job
This is my sign,my daughter done this,she is so talented when it comes to crafts and writing things,I can`t even draw a stick person.This will look so nice on the coop hoping to get it on today.
Great progress! Looking good!
