A lifelong dream has been to have a trio of laying hens, for wonderful fresh eggs. I designed a little poultry pen, but lo, upon pricing I found that I didn't really want to spend the money on it that new materials would cost. I went on Craigslist and looked for supplies and options, and happened upon a bird pen built a few years ago and in the next town. It was just the right dimensions, 4'x8', supposedly fit on the truck, and had oodles of plywood I could use with my own (modified, now) plans.
Above is the photo of the various phases of dismemberment of our birdie pen. Imagine it on the back of our beater truck: Silas and I looked like the Beverly Hillbillies!
