Susan I got the sign made here at a local guys house. If you go on Facebook, search ( D signs ) I sent him the picture on Facebook messenger and he messaged me when it was done. It cost $20 and I picked it up at his house on a Saturday morning early. It is plastic and I screwed it on with drywall screws. It seems to be holding up good. It's been on there for a long time now. I have stencils that I'm going to use to paint ( Ameraucanas ) on the top sides on the green 1x 8 s under the edge of the roof. It's been cold here now so I need warmer weather first. I also need two more hinges for the left side egg box lid. I been real busy cutting fire wood lately and the snow is flying here now.
Don my chickens are always in the woods scratching also. Last night my son and I went in the woods before dark to find a good tree for a deer stand. As we was walking up in the woods, I spotted a huge nest of eggs!! I've been running lights in my coop and only getting 2 to 4 eggs a day from 50 hens! Now I know why but I save on feed by letting them free range in the day. My son loves to go with me out to our chickens and goats and he likes to help me with chores to. He is only 9 and I enjoy him helping and learning about animals. I would love to get to a show with him along sometime.
