The current project

is the construction of the chook house in the middle of the pen. As with the pen itself, the chook house is being constructed of galvanised posts and rails and the walls will be of corrugated iron.



We decided to construct it in this manner to avoid using timber wherever we can as timber harbours lice. The other reason is that the posts will form part of the aquaponics shelter/roof system once the pen progresses to that stage of development.

"What's aquaponics," you say? Ask Ray... :)
