I ignored the wisdom of experienced chicken keepers and ordered day-old chicks BEFORE having the coop/run built. Oh yes, of course I’ll have the coop/run built in no time (I reassured my wife).
All is well in spite of my indiscretion. Though much remains to be done, our flock is safely enjoying their run. Certainly, not “on time” … and budget wise … let’s not go there.
In any case, here are some photos of the happy flock and their home.
