Looks good! Did you know those sell for about $250 down here? If coaching fails, you always have a fallback!

PS Did you have a set of plans or did you wing it?

Geez! I loosely followed a set of plans I found online. Guy said it cost him $175 to build. I will have less than $30 in it because I have the material. I got a little guidance from the father-in-law on the house part. The problem is he is an expert so once he gets involved he has o stay involved because he deviates off the plans to his own idea and I am lost 5 minutes later.

It's all painted. Now I'm going to try and recycle the neighbors chicken wire to save $$$. We will see how that goes....:sadwave:

Well the tractor is pretty well finished. Need to latch the door and cut roof to size. But everything is enclosed and the 2 chickens are sleeping in there tonight. Wrapping that fucker in wire was pain in the arse!

They started laying again- they had stopped from stress due to the move. The girls and I had scrambled eggs this am :)
