The bitties are due Mach 22. The chicken coop is coming right along. The chicken yard is fenced in. Still need to run two foot 1" mesh chicken wire along the base of the fence with one foot laying flat on the ground the other foot attached to the bottom of the fence. Large rocks will be placed on the wire laying on the ground. This should help keep predators from digging under.

There will also be 2" hex mesh chicken wire covering the entire pen.

Still need roosts and nest boxes, but that can come in a few months.

Need to get back to gardening for a spell.
