Chicken Coop Progress

Next up.... the roof!

I've been working on the first coat of paint and trim color since last week.  Just finished the person door today.... and made some of my coconut cookies too... and some cheesy dog treats... need to throw some laundry together yet... and do dishes a 2nd time... but not before I crack a Thirsty Dog Raspberry AleYummmmm!   

My hat's off to Thirsty Dog Brewing Company for their delicious craft brewed beers - they hail from my hometown, Akron, Ohio. But I digress....

7 weeks old today

We've decided the pearl guinea (brown/black one) is Nater.

That was the guy's name at Quicken Loans who recently refinanced our home... I mean, seriously, Nater??! (Does that give you a clue how smoothly the refi went??!  If you're guessing it didn't go all that smooth, then you'd be right.)

  2. Susan your coop looks GREAT! Love the paint job...what a difference a coat of paint can make. Smart thinking on dividing the coop in case you have chicks or a sick bird or what ever. Yes congrats on your refinance but sorry it wasn't a smooth transaction. I hope you've been enjoying the beautiful weather...have a wonderful Tuesday!

  12. We've considered getting Guineas. For the time being we're sticking to chickens, ducks and geese.
