Eggs are finally rolling out the spiffy rear roll-out nest boxes and chickens are sleeping on their new roosts. Flowers bloom in the planter box and (most of) the trim is on. In a couple more weeks maybe we’ll even have the tools all put away!
The “Tina Rowena Poopalot Memorial Chicken Coop”
(so named to honor the very special tiny chicken who was taken by a predator in the night through a rotted board in the old coop) features the following improvements:
- predator-safe, inside and out
- clean, unbroken eggs roll out of the nest
- no chicken poop in the screened “people side”
- automatic waterer
- rodent-proof (resistant?)
- “poop chute” opens into the compost bin
- solar light
- covered yard that’s “bunny-safe” too … bunnies coming soon!
