www.learnwithsteve.com This film is intended for anyone who likes the idea of producing fresh healthy eggs in their garden but is not quite sure where to start. We show you how easy it is to build your own coop and decide where to get your birds, how to look after them and even how to hatch chicks from fertile eggs. We believe in showing the methods rather than just telling you and the hour long film is both entertaining and packed with all the information and tips you need to know to get started.
I had an idea the other day to do this, even though the money spent made it a luxury item, I think it will pay out more in time saved and less damage to the plants in the garden from trying to run the hose in it. I lost some branches off of some tomato plants the other day due to dragging the hose over them and I’m sure this will help
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 …

I build a very simple little chicken coop out of free wood shelving in about 15 or 20 minutes for the little chicks. The way I ended up placing it only the chicks can fit through the hole to enter it none of the larger chickens. This gives the little ones a place to run and hide when the big ones get to rough on them.
