    Coop Contest Spring 2010 - Win $20 BYC Store Gift Certificate - WINNER

    update! Got the front of chicken castle landscaped and set up with the planters and bird houses. It's really starting to come together now. I've also put in new play perches for the ladies. I"ve got some good video of the first time they've used them. If I could figure how to post it. Off...

    Coop 99% done!

    Got the front of the coop landscaped this weekend! It's really starting to come together. It is the envy of the neighborhood. Everyone comes over to sit and watch the ladies. LOL.

    Chicken Therapy

    I know this is the chicken behavior thread.. but human behavior is kinda related... Am I the only one that comes home after a long stressful day and just sits in the coop watching the birds to de-stress? There is nothing better than to come home and sit with the birds and hand feed them some...

    Coop/Run in-progress - Pic Heavy!

    Excellent! I love the use of the space. The design looks VERY good. I wouldn't have done anything different myself. Lots of room, easy access, good venting. You've got it all. Excellent job on your first coop. Thumbs up brother!

    Is it bad?

    Not bad at all. I had just finished mine and already I was thinking about the next one... A nice little love shack for the breeding sets. LOL.

    Extension Cord to Coop?

    I'm preparing to run one to my castle coop as well. Once I drill a hole just big enough for the cord to fit through I will secure it on the inside, out of reach of the ladies and fill the gaps in the wall with caulking. I'm thinking of putting a heat lamp in there for the winter, a fan...

    Smooth Operation Ideas?

    This is what I have on my egg doors, I use tractor cotter pins to secure everything. I was going to use combo locks, but we have the neighbors check on the birds every now and then.

    Chickens in the garden

    The birds will destroy your garden. If not by eating everything you don't want them to, then by digging and scratching. If you want the poo for your garden you might think about a compost pile for the coop droppings. I've just started this myself, so don't have any real data on it yet. I...
