It's snowing hard today. It's beautiful to watch. I hate driving in the snow. I'll need to do that today and I'm not looking forward to it. Juergen has a cough that won't go away. He has 2 DRs appointments towards the end of the week. He will probably also take a week off next week. He looks really tired, and he is. We show our Leimen house to a German family that is moving back home from America. The appointment is Friday morning. They want to rent. There maybe other appointments too on the weekend. Hopefully it will be rented soon. The one family looks very promising. And they need a house March 1st. So the timing looks good. It will be a great relief to have this settled. We will need to put in a kitchen, get the stairwell painted and a few other things. But it's a short list of "to do's". And then it's done...and the whole drama is finally settled! I can see the spring flowers beginning to push up from under the snow. I had a dream of the giant flower boarder we planted last summer. It will not be long now until the spring. I think I'll try planting some seeds today. In about 4-6 weeks I'll be able to transplant things into the garden. Happy Valentines day.
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.
