Ice bath time for some of the hens because climate change is real.
@peeppeepcircus I dreamed that you made basically an underground "yard" sort of for them. Dug a pit 40 feet by 80 feet, 12 feet deep and put a roof on it with the top foot and a half all steel heavy mesh all around the top of the walls w/ fans & auto rakers for cleaning. (I know there is a name for that) w/ one ramp in & one out & the earth moderated the heat. You made it like a wonderland of hanging toys & waterers, perches, cubbies &play areas for them. They loved it &you did too. Nice dream.
@mims there is a guy that did something like this for his orchard
@peeppeepcircus I swear you loved your new setup - the roof and the hardware cloth were the most expensive parts (trusses were somehow stregtherened concrete beams and you made it in a curve like this 1/2 a parentheses ( with the top down to the right and you planted it with clover. - just from the dream and you loved it. On one side you had a little (20 foot) - like worm bins but you were growing black fly larva to feed to the chickens. We had a glass of wine (pinot grigio) to toast it.
@mims at least I already have the worm bins! And some clover seeds!
@mims coincidentally this would be a dream house for me, as long as it could withstand natural disasters.
@mims and this architecture just blew my mind - made with concrete over an inflatable sculpted shape.

@peeppeepcircus I'll haveto do some looking at cool architecture now - you've got me going! But that may be for tomorrow! How fun!
