Busy Day

It is supposed to rain today so I tried to finish as much outside as I could today:

• Built raised beds along the east side of the garden and broke up the soil and pulled weeds


• cleaned the chicken coop and the brood box inside the shed


• pulled the old tires off the coop and put the ice chest tires back on and retrofitted longer shaft and pvc pipe


• painted roof of the coop


• added piece of wood that was missing to the coop, it had a few tricky angles but worked out ok


• added some corner pieces to act like little shelves in 2 corners of the garden


• turned the compost and added chicken waste


• used the new tires to move coop, worked pretty good. Need to all rope and pvc to make a handle so you don't have to bend down so far.


• ripped 2 pieces of the front doors on the coop so we can open them after it rains


• painted the insides of those 2 doors so they don't swell


• removed one of the dividers in the laying boxes and made the favorite one larger
