I've been looking for just the right vacation house for our family. I want space, privacy, a pool, a good location, and a good price. I found a website that has houses and apartments on organic farms across Italy. There is a very nice house near Imperia that I'm hoping is available. It is on a large farm that grows olives and lavender. Imperia is on the Italian Rivera. The house is in the hills, 20 minutes from the sea. So we could have the best of both worlds. A quite and beautiful house in a field of lavender, and over 1000 good restaurants on a unbelievable coast line! We could take a day trip to Turin, and another to Florence. But the bulk of our time can be spent just sleeping well, and swimming. So I'm waiting to hear from them. I hope we get the house. I'm amazed at the cool houses and apartments you can rent in Italy. I'm so grateful to God for a chance to take a vacation. I hope it works out.

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.
