Pallets

[chik magnet]

I know you can make a coop out of them I just don't know how. So if you have a pallet coop or anything like it can you post pics or plans .

A very basic way to do it is to use the whole pallets as the framework for your walls/floors/roof rather than breaking them down. There are several guides already on this site if you search the keywords Pallet Coop.

Pallets are the way to go. Lumber cost have risen so high the deals I find are on damaged wood at lowes or Home Depot. I started collecting pallets for my Turkey pen that is going in this spring.

Wow, that isn't a chicken coop in those pictures, that's a chicken palace.

I am guessing the door and siding were what they call repurposed. Nice use of pallets there also.
