Dewalt please sponsor them, LOL!!! That hat is so summery!! The nesting boxes look great!

[@SonniesPlace]

I wish! Haha! It's one of my favorite hats. I get to feel the L.A. vibes in my little homestead in the country.

[@suburbanhomesteaderwy-az]

Looks great! I have that same kreg acu cut for the long shiplap cuts I'm making.
Can't wait to see the first eggs in those boxes!

That Kreg tool is so handy! And yes, can’t wait to see some chickens in there laying eggs. 🤗

Sandi from SuburbanHomesteaderWY sent me over so you have a new friend. The build looked great. Take care and have a blessed week.

[@SonniesPlace]

Thanks so much!

[@TheTinkerersWife]

Yes! GRILS WITH POWER TOOLS...LOL. Looks great. (Yeah I'm still catching up.) Those little wood latches Al Lumnah uses are so smart, I'm surprised more people don't use them too.

[@GreenHorn1Acre]

Great video... I love building videos 😁👍🏼

[@SonniesPlace]

Thanks, I do too!

[@SpottyCreekFarm]

The nest boxes look really good. I had been thinking about changing how we feed our goats and you gave me a piece of inspiration.

[@SonniesPlace]

That’s awesome! Would love to see how it turns out.

[@CecilliaDB]

Looks awesome!

[@SonniesPlace]

Thanks!

[@RobertsonsBellyAcres]

YAY YAY YAY!!! That looks AMAZING!! Great job y’all!!!! ❤️

[@SonniesPlace]

Thanks! It’s been a fun and challenging build.

[@builtontherockhomestead9390]

Hate it when YT unsubscribes me. Hate it when autocorrect changes what I type to something else. There is a lot of "Sonny's Place _______" channels and videos out there. Doors on my nesting boxes are rotting and need replacing, so I really wanted to see what you did. Good job.

[@SonniesPlace]

That’s happened to me before too. It’s frustrating. Thanks for making an extra effort to watch the video. I hope you find it helpful. ❤️

[@FlourEggsYeast]

Hi Emma & Matt! I know we’re already subscribed but I wanted to let you know we loved seeing you on Sandi’s channel last night on the Hot Seat. I hope you get lots of subscribers from it!!! PS love these fast forward / transformation videos. It’s very HGTV 😊 Kindly, Theresa & Cam

[@SonniesPlace]

Thanks so much! I really appreciated Sandi doing that. She’s really amazing.

[@RaisingRoneys]
