Operation Chook

Our chickens are wonderful, but to put it politely, they are soiling our yard. Therefore, they need to move out of the people garden and get their own little chicken garden. Now that the garden is nearly clear, we are going to fence them off a nice big corner behind the lemon tree. We have built them a nesting box and are going to finish the rest of the roost as soon as possible. This is the coop workshop, otherwise known as the dining room. Also bike shed.

This is some of the scrap metal that Richard has collected from around the yard. There is absolutely loads of it. These are a mix of tubes of sheet metal and rolls of lead. We are hoping that one of the art colleges will come and take it as material for their sculpture students. Fingers crossed! Else we'll have to make it a feature of the garden. "Ah yes, very modern, we have a section of metal deconstuction art beyond the pergola".
