@garygardens Thanks Gary if I did this professionally I would need an

Excellent work. Thanks for sharing. Motivating.
nice
@pinetar100 Thank you, it’s a bit crude but for a first attempt it isn’t

@selfreliantboy Thanks I hope the chickens agree.
@sugerbear520 Thank you.
Looks like it should be a solid building. Can’t wait to see your birds.
Wow , that’s terrific, the chickens should be happy in that.
Congratulations on a job well done. cheers

Hi, I hope you still check your videos, was wondering what company you got

@jihadacadien Lots of mistakes but it will do. I like the colour too.
@mugsyjeff Thanks it’s almost ready for the chickens one more short video
to post.
@dalecalder2003 Well as long as it doesn’t collapse on the chickens it

@SiriusLupis Thank you. Me too, the eggs went in the incubator in Ohio on

@JaxRL Thank you it sure isn’t perfect but it will do I always thought it
would be much harder.
Good for you! Its looking good, you did it in a short period of time and
inspire newbies like me. Keep up the great work and videos.
The chick hotel is coming along nicely. I take it your getting your
chickens just for the eggs.
This is SO Exciting…. That’s going to be one sexy looking chook house!
