Back in January during the Dirt+Chicken=Fertilizer grounds clean up day, it was noted the rotting status of the chicken run base boards. Being the coop is constantly under dirt and debris, bathed in water when in rains, and was not high quality weather boards to start, I would say fours years was an acceptable time.

Top boards were replaced and wire was reattached. Good to go for another few years or so.

While at repairs, a new chicken feeder was made as the old one was breaking at the handle. Nothing calls the ladies up like a new feed bucket! New dirt to poop in, new baseboards to throw dirt on, and new bucket to stuff your head into. Showing my chickens some love.
