Yes, I do it for the eggs and a bouns is they keep the bugs out of my garden and keep it fertilized. I have 11 chicks (egg layers) that will be old enough to go into the coop in about 3 weeks. My wife takes care of the chickens, I just maintain the coop. With eggs as cheap as they are currently we don't save any money, but the eggs are better tasting and it just one more thing that makes me self sufficient. My son has 18 egg layers and he gets an average of 10 eggs a day when it is warm out. No one in our family has bought eggs from a store in years.
Love that Chicken coop!
Best place to practice Social distancing, away from all the dumb___ people that are making this situation worse. I was out the other morning and threw a top water plug for about 4 hours. Snook, trout, redfish, and Jack's. Doesn't get much better than that.
Im seriously thinking of getting some laying hens. What are the outside dimensions of the coop. If you dont mind me asking, how much money do you have in the pen? It really looks first class! I was thinking of only 4 to 6 hens.
That will work, the first one I built was from a shed someone was throwing out and it worked perfectly until it was taken out by hurricane Matthew.
I'd love to see more pictures!
here you go.
Wow, thats is really nice. And big too.
Outstanding!
You got me hooked. I'm well into the log chicken schack remodel. It's starting to take shape. Lot of repurposed wood and parts.....
