Building A Chicken Coop For The First Time


By Dale Calder: "Just like everyone else says I love the keeping chickens newsletter and read it from cover to cover as soon as it arrives. I have never built any thing before and I just finished my coop.

I thought since I did this without any previous experience it might be an encouragement to others who are thinking of doing the same, to see the process.

My birds arrive the last week of May so only a few days to wait. I ordered six standard size brown egg layers, various breeds selected by the hatchery and nine straight run bantams one Slikie, three Mottled Cochins and five Bantam Grab Bag what ever is left over at the hatchery. They all hatch on Monday May 23rd and I should have the on either the 24th or 25th, can't wait."

I also made three short videos of the construction process.
