I'm not sure why I always feel stressed before a trip. I hate long lists of stuff, and deadlines! I hate the feeling I forgot to take the lettuce out of the refrigerator and it's going to be fuzzy when we get back. All the laundry has to be washed, all the plants have to be watered, and I have to be sure all 7 of us have shoes and under ware. Italy is not the end of the world. They have stores! They even use the same worthless money we use. I should try not to stress so much! I have a list. I even have a house sitter. I should get professional help. This is not healthy. But...but...but! I need to cover my potatoes with dirt, download books for the kids to listen to, and have to drop the dog at the doggie hotel, and and and and and!
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.
