Beginning the Chicken Coop

They are starting to get a little crowded in their brooder. Plus I'm getting tired of all the mess; the dust gets everywhere.

 I'm building a 48 ft² coop with a 130 ft² run below my back deck.  Today I framed the floor which I then insulated with folded up burlap bags.  I happened to have a hundred or so that I picked up free from the Intelligentsia coffee warehouse. 

Tomorrow I'll frame the walls and roof.  Then make the doors and windows, with cedar shingles for siding.  Basically it's a little house, albeit it one with a composting toilet.  It should be done in a couple more weeks.
