I'm planning to wreck the Existing and build the Future using the old what-ever-we-got-left-over gambit. The wire we use will have to be new. I've got fence posts and other stuff. In today's market what you don't have to buy is good. We even have some used 5-V left from the old barn. Cool huh? Southern red-neck chic.

I think the only time I've seen a chicken fly was when one was thrown out of the ring during a cock fight (and it's the only time I've seen a chicken beat another chicken with a chair).<BR/><BR/>Besides incorporating contemporary architectural styles to express the coolness of chicken coops maybe you can implement historical styles to show the history of the chicken coop. You can have a cave chicken coop, Stonehenge, Greek, Roman, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461658247603905885.post-65293441824587492872009-03-30T10:22:00.000-06:002009-03-30T10:22:00.000-06:00I M Pei, please!I M Pei, please!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461658247603905885.post-67219782882274127932009-03-30T09:42:00.000-06:002009-03-30T09:42:00.000-06:00How about Gothic Revival or something that looks l...How about Gothic Revival or something that looks like it belongs in a LA bayou... like a voodoo shack?MiniKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15395914933366678553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461658247603905885.post-56306301103113775412009-03-30T09:31:00.000-06:002009-03-30T09:31:00.000-06:00How about something built only from scrap material...How about something built only from scrap materials/scavenged goods?xtinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12960024706010157642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461658247603905885.post-14355406641507769002009-03-30T09:20:00.000-06:002009-03-30T09:20:00.000-06:00I still vote for a Wright/craftsman coop.
