When I finished working yesterday, I had a shipping crate up on blocks nice and solid.

Today's first step was to add some framing for fascia and a door.

Then we cut and added some fascia (sheathing), hung a door, re-purposed some milk crates for nesting boxes, and yesterday's shipping crate became our new hen house. All it needs now is a roost, and I happen to have a step ladder leaning against the house that isn't safe for anything else, so I reckon that will also be re-purposed.

Trish is talking about paining it, which will certainly be an improvement in appearance, but the important point is that as soon as the chicks are ready they have a proper hen house in which to live.
