I happened to have some left over insulation from our mudbrick shed we built, just the thing for Ballarat chooks. Understandably, the 'girls' were a little nervous following the recent insulation debacle, but once it was all installed, they were put at ease with many creature comforts one would expect. One thing I was really excited about was that the only items we had to leave the property for was the wire and nails to attach the wire. All the other materials were collected from around the place, including:
