Chicken Coop

We place the Coop in the field then Johnny and I built a "screened-in patio" for the chicken coop..It really came out nice. Now all we have to do is get  some chickens to move in!!!

 
While we were doing that, Jim and Bobby finished siding the Barn

Well we are getting there...it is now June 1st and the back overhang is built, the barn is closed in (except for the doors), windows are in and the siding is going on. The electrical work has started!!!!!! We're getting there!!!!!!  We went and bought  all the Stain and Paint  this way as soon as it is ready to be done we have everything...inside will be sprayed all white and outside will be Bordeaux  (which is a  burgundy wine red color) with white trim around windows and corners of the Barn).









Today I also order a lot of supplies that we will need for our "medicine chest"
Our Pens (stalls) that we ordered should be here by the beginning of next week!!!!

Barn

Well lots of stuff has been going on with the barn since I lasted posted...
The foundation is all finished and the drainage is all done......the area all around the barn has been grated and Johnny put down crush-n-run.
 Johnny even built one of his rock walls as to help built up the elevation. He is so good at building them and we have so much rock  on our property.
