All done painting.

Hindsight is 20/20...if I did it again, I would pick the paint and have all the 2 x 4's painted before attaching the chicken wire.&#160; What a pain in the ass it was to paint through chicken wire!&#160; Oh well...it's done.

Did someone ask you about coyotes in your area. They will go through that chicken wire like a hot knife through butter. Voice of experience here from much earlier days.

Bummer, I wish I had said something. Even easier to paint the planks on a couple of saw horses then put it together.

In late July, I added a tin roof, painted the door a darker color, and added batten on the sides.

Got my first eggs yesterday and today. :grin:

Bloody interesting, David! I wonder how much better will those eggs taste compared to market ones...?
