I find small change all around the house. It's usually in the cloths dryer, or near the sofa. I just pick it up and lay it on a table. Nicole has taken a special interest in this money lately (generally she could care less about money). She has decided she wants to go to Mexico and help build a house for a poor family. She will need the money to fly to the USA, pay for her expenses, and maybe sponsor the project (about $5000 for one house). I told her I would take her to America next summer if she can earn the money for her trip. All of a sudden those small pieces of loose change have some value. She has also begun taking on small jobs around the house for a small price. I'm going to give her a book on fund raising for short term missions. I will help her do a few projects to help her raise the money for the house. I think it's so cool she wants to do this! I guess I'm spending a few weeks building a house in Mexico next year because Nicole is very motivated!
Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.
