I'm listening to a teaching by John Paul Jackson on how fear kills. He said that many of us fail because of fear, but we never really know when our time of victory will come. Gideon was the most fearful man in Israel. God called him when he was hiding. Nothing in our lives is hidden from God. He knows our past, our failures and our fear. The future is not hidden from God. He is not sitting on his hands worried about how it will work out. But we are challenged to trust and not fear.
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.
