Chicken Shed
April 12, 2009 9:50 pm Food RelatedWe haven’t got any chickens yet but we’re planning on getting some rescue chickens.
We have an old kennel (well, it’s practically a shed!) left by the previous owners of the house, I’ve given it a lick of paint (a couple of weeks ago now) and raised it off the ground to dry out a bit (it’s been sitting in a puddle!).
So this weekend while my sister was over we had a go at moving the shed! Now as I said it is quite large but we still thought we’d go for lifting it (well there were 5 of us!)! bad idea! then we tried pushing it… hmmm still not going anywhere, time for a cuppa!
Well after a short brew stop we decided to use some stakes (round) we had in the shed (I think we were supposed to put those in when we did the apple trees! ooops!) as rollers… hurray, it didn’t matter much that the rollers were different sizes as the garden isn’t exactly a bowling green!
After a bit of pushing and shoving and some careful direction we finally got the shed in place…
We thought we were done! but oh no, still to go… but that’s for another day, just moving the shed was enough effort for today! remember to think about the positioning and perhaps don’t go for the furthest point away from where the shed is now!
I feel a bit guilty putting this under the ‘food related’ heading…. we’re going to eat the eggs!
