Oh we finished the coop last week.... working on the run build after work and on days off. 3 walls assembled, need to build the door, end wall, and roof support still. All the blocking is in place already (not pictured here)

Coop outside - we're actually planning on building a small awning for that little window as well.

What a week. Spent yesterday attaching all the hardware cloth and putting up the walls.

Wednesday the plan is to prep the inside for the girls (mulch in the run, hemp bedding in the coop itself, set up nesting boxes, get some run roosting bars set up, etc).

Sunday some friends are coming over to help install the run roof - it's big and we're both short.

Then hopefully we can move the girls over.

In other news, my thumb is finally closed up so I can get back to tank maintenance that requires hands in water.

Did some glass cleaning last night on all 3 of the tanks. Need to do a water change on the toadfish tank.

Need to get my hands in the pony tank and start plucking algae again

Right before vacation I ordered rollers to replace all the rolls in both the cube and peninsula, then I opened up my thumb almost to the bone and couldn't do the maintenance. I'm going to have yet another scar on that hand, but it's closed up finally so hopefully tomorrow I can get into both tanks and get the rollers replaced.

The algae in the peninsula refugium seems to have suddenly stagnated and isn't growing anymore, I'm very confused about that...
