Title: Plans for coop build
Post by: nicandem on October 26, 2011, 05:55:38 pm

Anyone got any plans for building a coop.... to take 4 - 6 chickens
Thinking of a pent roof design using stock board for the walls and bitumenised corrugated roof.... mainly after sizes
thanks

Hiya, there are some pics of our original coop etc on this thread (http://www.accidentalsmallholder.net/forum/index.php?topic=4195.msg38185#msg38185). We have since built a bigger house as numbers grew, but we still have a load of chicks living in the original one, which has stood up just fine over time.

HTH!
