Chicken Run and Play


The girls overseeing construction.
This past weekend, Salt and I completed the chicken run, so I thought I would share some photos from our construction project. After months of thinking about the perfect plan for a chicken run, we finally decided we didn’t have time this year to construct one of our own design, so we ordered a kit. It turned out to be simple enough that I could construct it while Salt worked out the more difficult problem of how to make a secure entry from the chicken coop. We started on Sunday morning and five hours later the chickens had their new outdoor play yard. The grand opening of the chicken yard was a big success as they all came out to explore, eat grass and ultimately flop onto the ground to sun themselves.
