He's even more proud of his fantasy play house. Unfortunately as he kind of works his designs around what pallets and other supermarket cast offs are available it's very difficult to tell you how many it took. I know that he found some wooden display units being thrown out and that became the foundation structure of the coop. Even more unfortunate is that he really made it as a challenge and doesn't believe that it's actually worth our while keeping hens for the amount of eggs we use. I had thought it would be nice to offer fresh eggs for sale to our guests but judging by how few were interested in home grown veg or home made jams & chutneys so it's unlikely that we shall be spending any money fencing in the coop and buying chickens in the foreseeable future. However on a more positive note, he's just putting the finishing touches to the greenhouse he's made out of pallets and some old doors & windows we were given and that will be used extensively by me. Can't wait to get some seeds in! Hi John, I’ll pass on your comment to Ian and I’m sure he’ll be delighted with your praise. He’s even more proud of his fantasy play house.
