    Automatically replenishing water source (for your water nipples/cups)

    I'm looking to automate our watering process. Right now we have the standard waterer that you flip upside down to fill, put the base on, then flip it back rightside up to give to the chickens. I'm looking to get, most likely, horizontal watering nipples for my flock of 8. Am looking to...

    post your chicken coop pictures here!

    The dimensions are 8*12. I took lots of build pictures, but will probably start my own thread when it's all done. It was a lot of fun doing it and only a couple of things I would change (so far, but the end is near!) in how I built it. My daughter loved helping. She thinks I need a tape...

    post your chicken coop pictures here!

    Thanks! No provisions yet, but I intend on doing something. I live in central Texas so it rarely freezes here. I'm more interested in something that'll block rain from getting inside. Haven't figured out exactly what I'm going to do yet. She petted all the chickens when we put them in there...

    post your chicken coop pictures here!

    Still in the building process of my Woods-style chicken coop, but it's enough to get the chickens out of my shop and into the coop. Still have to build the top window, paint, and lots of trim work to do. Looking forward to being done with the building process soon. My daughter seems to enjoy...

    Waterproofing the floor?

    I used a product similar to the black jack stuff, but i also used it to put an extra coat over our already painted walls and I wanted something white for that. I'm still in the process of building, so I can't comment on the longevity, but it seems to be exactly what we wanted and shouldn't ever...

    Woods Colony House - Portable

    That looks great! I'm currently in the process of building my own Woods' house, but you're definitely further along than I am. Here is mine as it sat last week: https://goo.gl/photos/XAw4TTeWLtQvxxjr8 It's got the back on it now and the inside was painted and I put some rubberized coating on...

    Woods Style Coop Question

    Thanks! Where do you have the board separating your shavings from the sand? It looks like about 2/3 of the way towards the back of your side windows. Rain was the main issue I was worried about. Clearly the front being open but without the ability to close the sides, I was worried about the...

    Woods Style Coop Question

    For those of you with Woods-style coops, how are you doing the bedding? I'm in the process of building one, but was curious about rain getting in due to the open nature of the coop. I've seen in pictures that @JackE has sand in the front and is doing the deep litter method in the back and was...

    Woods-style house in the winter

    When I was 'googling' chicken coops, this came up. This thread (and website) has been very beneficial. I ended up buying the book off amazon and I'm now in the process of making an 8x12. I know it doesn't scale down well, but it did have plans for a 6x10 (IIR the exact dimensions correctly)...
