A terrific transformation from a pre-built shed to a coop! Would have been nice to get an estimate of the total cost. Loved the family involvement!

Great buy on a shed and reasonable cost to convert it to a coop. Chicken wire for the run could be an issue due to predators. It would be nice to see some finished photos (especially of the inside).

Good food for thought (and something I had not given a great deal of thought to).

Nice re-use of a boat (and seems entirely appropriate for ducks)!

If anyone knows how to raise poultry in cold weather, it's Alaskan (just look at those photos!). Very good tips on how to keep your poultry comfortable during winter.

Nice looking brooder and I like how other uses for it have been thought of (such as using it for duck housing).

Not many details on the actual construction of the brooder (photos are nice).

For someone that raises a lot of chicks, a big brooder that will last over time may be the best way to go. One thing about this one...not sure how easy it is to clean out as it appears the only access is from the top.
A good reminder that keeping poultry isn't just about chores...it's enjoyable!

I like the modifications made to seal up the Little Tykes playhouse (hw cloth and waterproofing). The price was certainly right!

Looks like a fine coop, wish there was more detail on how it was built (including dimensions). One thing I would change is the use of dowels for roosting...2x4's would give the birds a flatter area to roost on.

The directions and photos were easy to follow along and the cost to make would be minimal.
