    Dog Kennel

    I have a dog kennel with small coops now, but we are upgrading to 1 big coop. The problem is connecting the new coop to the dog kennel that they use for a run, do I cut a hole in the kennel where the chicken door opens. I also bought two fence panels that I was going to place at the chicken door...

    Ideas to attach omlet cube run to a walk-in covered kennel?

    ...omlet cube and 6ft run for 6 hens. Any ideas on how to rig the omlet run to a larger walk-in run? I was thinking of just getting a covered dog kennel to use as a walk-in run and adding HWC for reinforcement against predators. I think it would be cheaper than getting the walk-in run from omlet...

    What ate my baby! 😰

    That's what I use for a Run, a dog kennel. But I'm aware that it's not at all predator proof. So I locked them up in my barn like coop at night that nothing, not even a mouse can get in.

    Need help improving our predator defenses!

    Buy the largest enclosed dog kennel you can find. How many chickens are you expecting to keep? If you are using chicken math, 9+9=18 chickens. I have aerial predators (eagles, hawks, owls, falcons), my run (enclosed dog kennel) has kept my girls safe. Where are you located? I want to warn you of...

    Those Who Breed

    Most successful way I've done it that I liked the best was all my breeding males year round have their own chain-link dog kennel with a small shelter (medium to large dog crate works great), when it's breeding season I simply add one or two hens depending on what mating I want to do.

    New coop and run from an existing kennel

    Hi Backyard Chicken Tenders! We're looking at purchasing new property and it has a kennel with a small dog run that leads into a larger fenced in run that we think would be perfect for our chickens. I'm brainstorming what we would need to do in order to get our flock set up. Right now, we'll...

    Can I get some help from someone with careless neighbours who own dogs.

    This went on for 3 years. One was even hit by a car once and hopped around on 3 legs for 5 months

    All Hens killed by Dog

    ...let the dogs roam the neighborhood.After yrs of catching their dogs and taking them home (and feeding them) my brother finally put up some dog kennels and started keeping them at his house when he caught them running loose instead of returning them. One by one the neighbors abandoned every...

    Can I get some help from someone with careless neighbours who own dogs.

    We offered the same so our neighbors dogs wouldn't keep getting loose but they let them out so we bought kennels and just held the dogs until they come to get them. They waited weeks at a time hoping we'd get tired of feeding them.We didn't. We still have all 4

    Recommendations for cost effective coop + run

    .../ set ups! I’m not great at building things, so the simpler, the better. I’d also like to stay under $500, if possible! I was planning to get a dog kennel, adding a roof, and then having a coop inside! There are *lots* of predators around, so please feel free to add any predator proofing...

    Amazon run?

    I've seen this and I'd get it. I have a large dog kennel/run and I love it. If I needed to increase, I'd get the one you're looking at. I really like the gate. But I'm not obsessed with having a predator proof run, just a predator proof coop/barn. This sits inside of a fenced 1 acre but of...

    Dog Crate Pan as poop board?

    Is there any reason 2 36"x24" heavy duty plastic dog kennel pans couldn't be used as poop boards for a 6 foot roost? Thanks!

    Reclaimed fence panel coop

    You may have to attach a wood door frame to the kennel gate to close the gaps .That would definitely improve the security of the run if you're interested.The lessor weasel is very small in comparison to a regular weasel...
