Chickens
Been building a chicken coop for our chickens-to-be. It's taken a bit of time to get around to it, but the coop is looking good. It's built almost entirely from stuff that was hanging around our yard (or our neighbours). The previous house owner seemed to have quite a collection of junk built up, including some 6ft steel pipes that are very heavy and very strong, and have made an excellent support for the frame.

Been able to make use of cool things like cobalt tipped high-speed drilling bits, and molybidium (spel?) alloy tin-snips. Discovered that power-drills work much better when you run them in forward, rather than in reverse.

Hoping to get a few Isa Brown chooks from CERES once the coop is complete. Failing that will probably investigate local breeders.
