Dale Calder : Hi Gina the news letter gets better with every issue, I love seeing all of the beautiful coops that members are building, it shows how much they value the health and safety of their birds. My coop is finished and has been occupied for seven weeks now. Since this photo was taken I have added an 8x12 foot yard fenced on all sides and the top, they love getting out in the fresh air, greens and bugs. Today I added 164 feet of four foot high electric poultry netting and they are allowed to explore in this large section of my lawn whenever I'm around to watch them. Cats and dogs should be deterred with the solar charged fence but of course birds of prey, of which we have many, could still swoop in so they go back in the smaller yard if I have to leave for a while.

Keep up the good work and happy summer to everyone. (In the northern hemisphere). Dale P. Calder
