Chicken Run

Today my Dad and BF finished the new chicken run. Since we can't trust the dogs with the chickens and they can only be out for a few hours a day, we built this run. Now they will have all day outside in the pen with their normal break to roam the 2 acres.

Also this week my BF set up some used Thermal Water Heaters on the chicken coop roof to heat the dome pond for the winter. It's been tested and with a couple of tweeks and insulation we should be set when October hits.

As for me, I've been planting and harvesting the dome like a mad woman. Most of my outdoor startings have had to be replanted in bigger pots. Lettuce, spinach and radish have been a great addition to meals daily. I just got back from getting more soil to start my potatoes and sweet potatoes in. I'm out of room in the dome, tomorrow I will blip it. Just cleared some beets out and need to collect seeds from carrots before I pull more out.
