Ciao .Tent type Africa safari need a PVC roof cover for a long time duration.
Always so impressive 🙂
suggestion for you any wood near to the ground paint it with used engine oil it smells bad for a few days but will stop the wood rotting as fast
I hope your dog is "chicken proof"….
Wales a Communist utopia.
Good job.
Glad you have the tree and roof for cover from hawks. We had golden eagles on our ranch but our chickens had a good roof to hide under so eagles and hawks didn’t get them.
Will you be eating the eggs? I thought you were Vegan 😮
That hat tho 🤣😅
you could name them teriyaki, biryani, and duck sauce 🙂
My wife is clear, no composting toilets.
You’re doing such a great job guys, well done! It’s so nice see it all come together and you learning and apply new skills along the way 👍👏👏
Btw, love your Landy and where can I get your cool Motor T-shirts?
Keep up the good work guys!
Burn the bottom of the posts they’ll last much longer.
GINGER FOR THE ORANGE HEN CALL HER GINGER
.
Great work you two, the hens and the chicken coop are great too !! Should call them Ginger Sporty Baby and Scary. The glamping tent looks amazing and I can’t wait to book I once you’ve got it all up and running !!
Is the top layer of your decking upside down? shouldn’t the ‘turreted’ bits face up not down.
❤
Please tell me you rescued the hens? Thousands of hens get slaughtered each year because at 18mths old they are no longer as viable and egg production starts to decline. Please always rescue if you can😢
Hi. I love watching your channel. I have had 3 chick’s of my own hatch this year. Their names are nugget, wing and dipper. I always name my new chick’s after food😂. I don’t eat them though. They are my pets. You are living me dream. More videos please !
I am absolutely loving your channel,probably the most laid back couple on YouTube,maybe one day i will get to stay there once you get sorted.
Brilliant 😊 we love watching your progress. Particularly enjoyed seeing the chooks, Emilie was hilariously distracted by them 😂 Looking forward to the next visit, Sally and Doug xx
Seriously love your videos guys, you have made such a cool impact on your land and I can’t wait to see what you continue to do in the future! 😊
what size was your coop? S M L ?
A big well done for completing your glamping pod looks lovely when your more up and done I will come stay with the wife. P.s give yourself a big tap on the back well done for your hard work I have always wanted to a glamping site on my own land ❤
I think you put the decking upside-down
I hope you don’t mind, but I have a question about the growatt system. We’ve been living off-grid for almost 10 years and have a system attached to our house but bought a Jackery for portable jobs. We found it great for charging a phone or power tool battery, but we would have killed it if we used it for a kettle or heating or anything more powerful. We would absolutely buy a Growatt! Especially if it can be used for heating and boiling a kettle! Do you know if the manufacturer warranty covers it for this kind of regular usage? And do you have a link of where to buy? If you guys can benefit from our purchase that would be awesome!
I grew up on a farm, but I have lived much of my adult life in the city. While I like living in the city, I will always miss the chickens. I loved seeing your new chickens.
In future, if you attach a cut off spur along the top of your joists & noggins at either end, protruding beyond the length of the joists/noggins, when you drop them in, they will self level to the top of the frame, it will save you time and make fixing them in place much easier. You only need hold them on with staples or tacks.
Amazing job 💯👌
Good to see you’ve now topped 100k subscribers! Well done for all your interesting content.
Beautiful little chicks!!!
My dad always said you can never use enough nails. I’m sure he’d say the same for screws. 👍🐓🐓🐓🐓
Please wear gloves when painting with the pressure treated stuff, I don’t know about overseas but here in Canada that stuff is toxic ❤
👍🏼🛠👫🏕️
I’m desperate to see the final result, you guys need to work faster haha 🙂
You two are absolutely brilliant 😀 You explain everything so well 👍 Your precision is amazing & work so well together 👏 Tip Top can’t wait for next ep vlog 👍 Great job guys
Loving the vlog and knee pads!
Love it guys. Great work!!
This is awesome, best wishes from Australia.
Amazing work you guys are very inspiring
Amazed and impressed with your progress ! Looking awesome !!
Enjoy watching your videos . Would suggest in you climate painting the decking frame and support posts with bitumen paint to give it that extra protection. Keep up the good work 💪
Wouldn’t you have the fixings on the outside for the legs for when you need to change them?

Looking absolutely fantastic. So excited for your future xxxx
Quick tip for cutting noggins. Line 2 pieces of wood on top of each other so the ends are flush, mark your measurement on the top one and set your blade so it just marks the 2nd piece, then you don’t have to re measure! On your next cut do the same and so on! Hope it works for you.
You could move that set up around (minus the pavers) and have them fertilising the ground for planting.
