Let's look deep into the mind of a "radical terriems"

terriems said,Now it just needs boards to slide in for the front. I waited until this was done to measure for those boards.

terriems, This is incredible husbandry, the circus could sure learn a thing or two from you. This deserves recognition. Send me photos when you get those "boards" on and I'll see about getting you one of those AZA exhibit awards.
At Post Carbon Institute...they keep their compost piles within the chicken coop.

I'm debating over whether to use this design or not...I like that you could buy less feed for the chickens, but I do like a coop setup where you don't have to close the chickens in at night (you have to have sturdy fencing on all sides, including the top, to do this, but the advantage is that you can leave for a night or two without a house sitter).

The compost pile is going to attract potential predators and I don't think I'd put it in with the chickens if I were trying to keep my fencing predator-proof. I'd probably lose some chickens and be constantly fixing the fence.

terriems, again I applaud you for the continuous "self questioning" and striving for what is best for animals. The obvious dedication you have, in only "needing a night or two" away from your animals is inspiring, but I have to ask, you are not going to be spending that night or two, trying to drag your goats over to the fire, are you?
