The chickens are in the coop

Well, today they were anyway. The coop is pretty much done!  It is (hopefully) predator-proof, now it has just about everything except nest boxes and roosts in the henhouse. It'll probably also get a paint job at some point. Here are the girls enjoying what will be their new home. We'll probably start putting them outside during the day and bringing them back into the basement at night this week, then they'll be outdoors full-time.
