Completion and Clarification

It is done!!!  The coop is complete.  One final push was all it took and the girls weathered their first night in it yesterday.  I left them out until it was dark to see whether or not they would venture in on their own.  When I got around to checking on them a little after 9, I only saw three chickens and assumed most were in the coop.  I soon realized my error and began pulling chickens off of the clown car pile by the fence.  At least this group of survivors was following their instincts to stay warm.  I loaded them into the coop and noticed that none moved away from the door as I went inside.

This morning, when I went out to open the coop, it didn’t appear any movement had occurred and I was met with what can only be called “chicken stink eye”.  But with the growing light they began to explore the rest of the coop and I did see them venture forth by the time I headed off to my day job.

Now for the clarification.  If you are still reading, the Web-Mistress took issue with any insinuation that she might be other than a crack shot.  So, for the record, I am sure that should any rabbit come along it will meet a swift and terrible end.
