Cedar fence boards and a second hand cupboard door makes a quick add on coop. Bit of hardware cloth over an opening above the door for ventilation. Simple latch made of scrap wood. Only used for cooping over night.

Quick and inexpensive solution to add on pens using DIY fencing . Bird netting strung across the top prevents escapes and predator birds from gaining access. Mylar streamers hung from long bamboo poles scares hawks and eagles.

Second hand file cabinets with drawers removed make nice nest boxes. Can stack them too. Cedar shake at the top prevents roosting.

Cradle hold a large wooden cask wine barrel with hole cut out. Makes a great nest box for turkeys. Two large hens can nest in it too.
