Chicken Accommodation Available for a Handsome, Single Young Man!
by
Stephen Taylor
(IC: homeowner)
We recently acquired a rooster (cockerel), he was on death row as his old family were emigrating , we named him Duke (after John Wayne who played Rooster Cogburn in True Grit)
He is quite large, and the only house we had available for him at night was, lets say , a bit snug. He likes his own space away from the girls, so it was time to build him some better accommodation.
Almost everything is this project was either recycled. left over from other jobs or found in scrap bins.

Step 1: Tools and materials
Step 2: The Frame
Step 3: The roofing iron
Step 4: Floor
Step 5: Assembly of the run
Step 6: The Night Roost
Step 7: Closing up
And here is the happy camper!!
Enjoyed the project?

Stephen Taylor on Sep 05, 2016He is something of a misogynist. (don't know where he could possibly get that from!!) He also hates plastic bags and brooms, but he's fine with me even when I tease him!
