    Build Mentor in Texas?

    Thank you jthornton and STxChickenman! I'll see what I can't haul and check out the delivery or rental option. I had not even considered that! I may go with a simple A Frame build to begin to get my feet wet and so I can start with a few birds. We have 2 acres of completely cleared land so...

    Build Mentor in Texas?

    Ok, glad I asked! I figured it would probably be a safe bet to concrete it, especially in our area AND there is no sheltered spot or any kind of wind break (at the moment) where they will be.

    Build Mentor in Texas?

    Wow!! Thanks for all that! You've given a LOT to consider! Can I ask a few follow up questions? 1. (Dumb question alert) In your SUV I'm assuming the boards stick out the back? Can you give tips on safe transport from store to home? I drive an Expedition so have some space especially with seats...

    Build Mentor in Texas?

    That's awesome! I figure I should at least learn how to use a drill since that would make work easier!

    Build Mentor in Texas?

    That looks awesome! I'm thinking I want to plan for larger than my 6 hens I plan to start with that way I have a little growing room. I'm thinking of building for 12-15 maybe. I'm also south but in the Galveston area. I'd love to see progress photos as you go!!

    Build Mentor in Texas?

    Hi! I'm just a girl with visions of chicken coop grandure with NO building skills + limited funds for pre done coops. I want to get my hands dirty, and I'm not afraid of hard work. I also own zero tools and wouldn't know how to use them. I am married but I am probably more handy around the house...
