Awesome! Can't wait to see it as it progresses.
On a side note, I am about to rebuild the nest boxes for my hens. How are those large nesting boxes working out? What are the dimensions?
Is that a full 4 inch lip on the bottom of the boxes?

They so like to sit in them a lot but certainly no eggs yet. Boxes are basically 16" cubes. I think the two on the ends are closer to 12" wide just due to the length of the wall. The lip is a little under 4", probably closer to 3". As I mentioned they seem to like getting in the boxes so we will see when the egg laying commences.

^^^ I bet he got a lot of gravel in his eyes, setting those footings.
When life gets me down..... you know hunting/trapping season is closed.

The chicken being 10 weeks explains why ithe boxes look so big in the picture lol. Looking forward to future updates.

Oh man, cool man cave! Jim
Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
