I was spending allot of time looking on eBay for stuff to furnish the house in Leimen. I guess it was fun to think of just how I would furnish the house. What colors I would paint with, what pictures I would put on the walls. But it got really old, really fast. And the reality of just how much work it would take to furnish and decorate a 4 bedroom house was hitting me hard. And I felt sure I do not want to do this! But we may still need to do it. But I am praying for a buyer. And we have 2 families that want to see the house. One will look at it this week, and the other in 2 weeks after the renter moves out. We have a gardener coming next week to redo the back yard. He will put in roll grass. And we will put up a fence. And if we need to furnish it, we will. But I will deal with that in a few weeks if I need to. Instead I'm just working on my own house. I'm DE cluttering everything. And I'm putting up some fall decorations. I'm sadly saying goodbye to a summer that never really was. And I’m trying not to worry about what may be…and doing today all that I can do.
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.
