Friend and his wife moving to Florida. Gave us Ten layers, Feeder and Waterer, several bags of feed [[7 or 8]], several pounds of grit and oystersshell both bagged and in buckets, 8 fresh eggs in a contraption you sit on the counter and they spiral down from the top-looks like it holds two dozen, couple of Owl statues to scare Hawks, a metal Rooster and a live-catch traap.
Has a few more things for us next week.
The girls are om the garage=not ideal but they are safe, even got an egg this morning in one of the smaller plastic dog/cat carriers. Moved several in to encourage the egg laying.
Planning out the Henhouse and their Yard. Thinking of building the house in the open barn against one wall, cutting an access door for them to go out and fencing a large yard for them. Will be able to close the access opening at nightor during hurricanes or whatnot, more protected sleeping in the barn.
Thinking OSB for the inside nesting area but we do have a lot of sheetrock and a lot of vinyl siding that was left here so giving some thought to using the sheetrock and siding for the henhouse-save some $$.
