This is so cool. I am starting plans to build a small coop with pallets. I can get them free from Paducah recycling here. Watching these types of videos sparks my imagination. Right now my layers roost in a designated place in my shed BUT I need my shed space.

BTW I used those plastic zip ties to hold my compost bin together. They seem to last a very long time. I even use them on a plastic lattice fence I built. Of course I got them free from my sis!

Question Do you live in AZ? I heard you say something about Gilbert.

Mother Nature is my Teacher
Horses are my loves
And I can become awed
By a pair of Mourning Doves
