We have to wait a week for it to set up.  Will paint the wood at back and the shed wall on left.

Another great project in progress Chookie.

The concreter was a very nice person.  Said he would happily come back to do any work we required for another roast lunch. He did a terrific job.
We have bought a Chicken house from Bunnings and Ral will assemble it next week. We will have to get some new girls as the old ones are over 2 years old.

Great tip with the lettuce seedlings, thanks. That is going to be a luxe mansion for your girls Chookie.

I have just splashed out on a new home for my three girls. They will soon be in a large moveable pen that is fully enclosed and fox proof. Had enough of the wild birds (especially the "flying cane toad") Indian Mynas and as well as pigeons eating all the chook food. The food I buy is now $50 bag, up from $35 bag a year or two ago Some birds were even laying in the chookhouse    Hope the girls like their new home!

A movable pen is a great idea.  I would love one.

I will probably lose my three girls soon as my neighbour only leaves them with me for a couple of months, until they are big / old enough to go in with his older chooks. I am starting to train one to help me with my weeding - she is very good - I start pulling the running roots up and she gets in there and scratches around to find more - I am sure she has no idea she is doing exactly what I want her to do!
