I am trying to get some extra rest. I am feeling tired, and yes We have been doing too much. Next week also looks busy- The last weeks before summer vacation are generally full. But we went out to lunch after church. And I didn't try to get anything done...just rest. The boys and Nicole will be at camp in a few weeks. Jessica will have her teacher by then. I'll have time to spend with Sarah. This week Nicole has her art show. Juergen also travels to America , but just for a few days. And a great deal of our focus will turn to renovating the Bad Schonborn house. We need new windows, insulation, and a new heater. I guess we will do everything we can afford to do now. Our heating bill was pretty awful this past winter. We need to see how we can improve things. I don't know if we can afford to paint. Yes it needs it, but that may need to wait another year.
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.
