Sorry I couldn't resist the pun! Today the rain halted work and I was stuck inside, it turned out quite nice though. I did some crafting and organising - always satisfying :) Anyway we did some more work on it yesterday and the roof is on the house now and all waterproofed but I didn't want to give too much away before the hens are in but here's a sneak peek...
The next pictures will be of our new ladies! I am really happy with how the house has turned out, especially since I did it all myself! Al has been doing the wire. It's taken a lot longer than I first thought but I'm glad I didn't rush it because it looks just like I'd hoped - so happy :) I might post pictures of our 1st house and 2nd house we built so you can see the progression of my carpentry skills LOL
I can see some very happy little girls living in there!

Thanks Jane, they should be moving in on friday :)
DeleteWell done Astra - your pride is justified - can't wait to see the girls in their new 'des-res'
ReplyDeleteAh thanks Wean, it was a lot of work but I so love working with wood, it was all a pleasure. Pictures of the girls will be up this weekend hopefully!
DeleteLooking good! Can't wait to see your new chickens! x
ReplyDeleteMe too! We pick them up on friday - I hope they like their new home :)
DeleteOh...it looks fantastic! Good job!!! I can't wait ti *meet* your little ones!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks bee girl :) I can't wait too, only 2 days to go!!! and there will be lots of pictures :)
DeleteWow! looking great- I am seriously impressed with your wood work skills x
ReplyDeleteThanks sarah - if I'm honest I'm a bit surprised that it looks so good LOL my dad is a carpenter so it might just run in the family :)
DeleteLol what a fantastic skill to have inherited! I'm very jealous, I am currently trying to work out how I can build a water wall for the children at school out of wood. I think I am just going to have to get wood and play until I am happy with it lol
