Hi everyone,
Still haven’t set up the coop for solar electric power but thought i’d provide this useful link for you to browse and put to use if you have a few chickens at home and are attempting to winterize your coop. More to come about the solar panel in the next couple weeks.
Here it is:

All you need is a tin cookie jar, a lampkit or a dismantled lamp, a light bulb, and a 3/8 ” drill bit.
I would also like to thank Mr. Murchie in Doyleville for providing MacCurdy Farm with a half dozen more chickens for our egg laying operation. Much obliged.
