Preparing for chickens

 Ed spent the day building a chicken enclosure and two coops.  We are going to have chickens.  We have spent much time talking over what we want our flock to look like.  I want adult hens already laying and Ed wants day old baby chicks to raise.  The dogs don't care as long as they can scrounge some of their food...lol

We live in coyote, bear, raccoon, skunk, mountain lion country so they must have a fully enclosed structure for at night to keep protected.

The dogs are enjoying watching the whole process.  Too bad they couldn't help..I mean, after all they are such great diggers.

 Alyssa decided to help Daddy build the coops.

Comet is all tired out from all of that supervising!
