Well the past 5-7 months I've been piecing these things together whenever my friends and I have time. I couldn't have done it without the brothers of TBH helping me out every step of the way. There are five  12'6" x 5' kennels. The one of the far right is a whelping box. We cut the bottom off a water tank to use for a pan in the bottom of it. The others are just normal kennels with 50gal white barrels for houses, and a 3.5' deck in the back of em that's a foot off the ground. Should have made them foot n a half off the ground for easier cleaning. Would have liked for them to be a little bigger, but I already had the slab so I used what I had. Females in the kennels, and males on chains.







Here is the whelping pen.

Thanks y'all. I really appreciate it. And couldn't have done it without a lot of help from my brothers. Blakebh and myself came up with the idea. DavidTBH, JeffTBH, DallasTBH, and my buddy Nick... Can't thank em enough. Charles, those were 16' x 5' (2x4" holes) horse panels that we cut to size. Still going to seal it all the way off with the scrap I have. Might have to buy one more piece. 70 bucks a sheet. Reyeb, I'll see if I can't come up with all the material costs for ya bud. I'm pretty sure I'm a little over the 2g mark, but I think I had a tool or three in that price too. That's not counting how much food and beer I bought for my boys while we were doing work. I also did it over time so it didn't hurt as bad. I'm planning a septic system next for the back. Make a little gravity drained system. I'll post those specs and pics if I can put it all together.

Here is the one I'm working on for your kennels Ryan. Just took it out from soaking Tuesday, after a week or so in the sun it should be ready to put back together and mount up.

Don't won't to take anything away from the thread but when I told TSC that gebos panels where 50 for the 2x4 panels they matched it. Just thought it might help someone save twenty dollars a panel.

Damnit! Really? And they are the welded 16' with 2x4 holes? I sure wish Ida known that before hand. Wow! And thanks Blake! I really appreciate it brother.

What is a gebos panel? 50 is cheaper than 70, but dang thats still expensive and they dont have them in 6' panels
