coop troubles...

The good news is that the coop is finished. The bad news is that I built it on the deck and we can't get it into the yard. It is too wide to go down the stairs or fit through any of the openings. So, it has to go over the railing and down into the yard... Unfortunately, it is too heavy for us to lift that high without the help of some burly fellows. And so, on the deck it stays until some future time when the stars align and we have enough muscle to move it. Sorry, chickens. You almost had a home... Maybe you can find a nice cardboard box somewhere that's held together with duct tape and love.
