I walk barefoot in the chicken coop all the time. If I step in something that I shouldn't have I just wipe it on the grass when I step out.

Just wanted to say you've got an amazing lawn!! I WISH I could get my grass so turf-like and green!!  Same with your coop and garden...so nice looking, neat/clean, organized!! I can tell a LOT of time, effort and planning went into that which I can appreciate.

I keep bringing up a chicken coop to my wife, to replace the rabbit hutches that came with our home that we don't use, but she grumbles about it.

I would have that grass nice and brown and missing huge spots in a month, six weeks tops.  

Great looking setup!!

These are both "Harvest 72's" ordered with 5 small and 1 medium track sets.

Do you have any detailed pictures of the dolly you have under that Shelf-Reliance rack?

I've been thinking of building one myself but am certainly not as handy as you appear to be. If yours works well I'd just as soon copy it.

Without a dolly those racks are impossible to move while full.

It's just a basic plinth box, sized 1/2 in. bigger than the shelf footprint, used "100lb" casters, 2x4's. Doubled up on the ends to give good support to the casters.

A wall rack I made for a family member with a very narrow storage space:


Normal self-rotating can rack, home made to fit a specific (lower) kitchen cabinet:


Roll-around mount for a vent-free propane heater. Handy extra heat source during ice storm power outages:

The pantry, a climate-controlled room built into one corner of our shop building:


Temp-control to activate & deactivate air-conditioning in the pantry. Black power wire runs from always-on outlet up to adjustable temperature switch (from an attic fan) and back down to temp-switch-controlled outlet below. Keeps the A/C unit fan from running when the compressor isn't, an annoyance of many window-unit air conditioners nowadays:



Lighters, matches, etc. Tha'ts a battery-operated CO detector in the ziploc bag; have to be vigilant with those, as they have a limited shelf life even if unused:


Batteries, mostly non-rechargeables:

Home made campfire pot hanger. (Everybody has a blacksmith's forge, right...?







Power box. Lives mostly in a box trailer, charged by solar panels on the trailer roof. Three 12-volt power outlets and Strion rechargeable flashlight permanently mounted on one side, and velcro tabs on the top to allow mounting & dismounting of 12VDC items (usually lights) on top:


Inside, two 18ah batteries and charge controller. The plug on the left is where the solar panels (or other charging source) is plugged into the box:
