Chicken coop part 1!

Whew. I didn't realize it had been so long since I blogged! Some days this seems like a full time job? I can't be alone thinking that?!?!?!?  


Anyways. We have been working on our chicken coop! We decided this year we wanted to give raising chickens a go! I have spent HOURS researching and reading about chickens. Which I swear is strange. Something about gardening has brought out some new found part of me. And I love it. Simple is better. And anyone who tells you differently is lying. There is nothing more therapeutic then to get up early and start my morning off in the garden...And to even type that is foreign to me. Its just so calming and amazing to harvest your own goodies. I have loved loved every second of it and I miss it terribly. I am so ready to start digging in the fresh dirt. Were expanding the garden this year. I plan to blog about it a lot more as well. BUT back to Chickens.

So the coop. We were lucky enough to have a job last summer that we installed a beautiful paver patio. BUT to get to the patio the deck had to be removed. Thankfully my handy husband was smart enough to take the deck apart nicely and neatly and then store the wood the same way. KNOWING we would use it for something...lol! (hoarders.) So $49.00 we are almost done. We still need the tin roof. And thats it!





FYI- it was freezing. We worked 2 soild weekends. 



Let me remind you. We are at $49.00 spent. On those! See the yellow boxes? Decking screws are way over priced. I mean really?!? 

 
Found these windows at the farm. Worked perfectly! 


Somehow this man never questions my insane ideas. And willingly does them without complaining ever. 


Where my stud is standing is future nesting boxes! 

I'll save more for tomorrow!
