    Chicken Condo: Add heat and air and I could live in it!

    Built this 90% by myself. Had my husband help with the roof and attaching the first 2 walls. 4 nesting boxes on the side. 3 roost bars. Room for food inside. I used a full sheet of plywood (8x4) for the floor and went up from there. Fence sections (8 feet tall rough cut) were used for...

    Hello from GA

    My sister has had several rounds of chickens over the years and I decided it would be fun! My kids are now 2 & 3 and old enough to understand, so we ordered 7 and have 6 left. Today I moved them into their newly constructed Ark and they seem to be loving it!
