Super Self-Sufficient
We finally got back to working on the coop yesterday. It was hot and dry, and has a slight breeze. It was a great day to build!
We added more ventilation lower down than we had originally planned (thanks, @Beekissed for the post on Deep Litter!) And I finished digging trenches for a hardware cloth apron. We're hoping to get windows framed in today.
So far we've only had to buy screws, hardware cloth and nails, the roof panels (on clearance marked down to less than $8 from $35 a piece), two packs of shingles, and a few braces for this job. All of the wood is reclaimed and was free to us.
Ps 13:6, "I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me."
