Chicken Coop – Hen House Tour – Chickenville in Central CT

Tour of the chicken coop for our 3 chicks, 10 weeks old, an Australorp, Barred Rock and Partridge Rock. I first bought a coop from e-bay, but when it arrived, it was only 35 lbs. vs the advertised 85 lbs., so, after I built the base, I deceided to just go ahead and build the coop! We are raising organic, free range chickens for eggs and for pets. This is my firs attempt at building something and it turned out OK. Things I don’t mention in the video – all solid woods (pine siding, fir studs and cedar shingles) vs. high VOC plywood, the slot on the coop floor below the perch leads to the litter draw (most of their poop drops down when they sleep – the rest of the floor is solid and consists of cedar shingles on top of several boards of pine), and the perimeter of the coop base and run has a galvanized 12″ wide screen buried under the soil that also goes down into the ground, making a stapler shape in order to keep out predators. The side with the screen window closes fully, and the nest box will get a 2×4 in front of it so the nest will appear to be raised and more enclosed. Next spring, the window above the door will get a screen for added ventelation – right now, the coop is winterized and has the vent on the roof. Also, this will not be heated, even though temps here in the winter can get down to single digits, but we will heat the galvanized waterer. We have winter-hardy breeds, so they just need to be draft free and we will watch for frostbite. The chicks spend hours

Vid was taken in winter of 09 I built this chicken coop using 2 interior doors and scrap wood from a local construction job. The siding was a freebie from craigslist, and the two windows were scavenged from the dump. All in all the only thing I needed to buy was a 12 foot 2×4, hinges for the windows, some chicken wire, and some foam insulation for all the gaps. The roost was made from a closet rod. I have since recieved a 12 foot by 12 by 12 by 8 by 8 six foot tall dog pen for free to give them a large area to run when they are locked in. I let them free range when I’m home but due to some dog attacks I keep them in the pen otherwise. The sliding door is not on any tracks it just slides freely and has been working ok for about a year. This coop holds my 8 hens in comfort, and was intentionally left on the small side for the cold New Hampshire winters, so they could stay warm with their body heat. The drop light seen had been used on the very cold nights and was on a timer during the short winter days, so they would still produce eggs, but they keep pecking the bulb out, so I will need to think up something better for next winter.
