    [updated] APPROXIMATE Cost of building an 8x12 shed or buying one

    Yeah, I like my door. I wanted a door with a large window (more light for the hens), and when I saw that one at Habitat, I stood next to it so no one else would lay claim to it and I made sure the store clerk knew that it was MY door.

    [updated] APPROXIMATE Cost of building an 8x12 shed or buying one

    I think putting the door up was the most difficult part of this building project. I think my little $15 door from the Habitat re-store looks quite nice. I just painted it with some of the red oops paint from Lowes. It's just a coincidence that it happens to match the roof. We ended up...

    [updated] APPROXIMATE Cost of building an 8x12 shed or buying one

    So we decided to just go ahead and build our own coop instead of buying a shed. It's 8 x 12 and so far it's cost us just over $700 with everything purchased from Lowes. (The 8 x 12 sheds from Lowes cost about $1400 and up; so we figured we got our coop for 1/2 price!) We have the walls up...

    [updated] APPROXIMATE Cost of building an 8x12 shed or buying one

    Thank you all, again, for your input and for the awesome photos of your shed coops. It seems the sweet spot on cost is around $1000 (give or take a couple hundred). I can buy a brand new 8x12 for about $1300, so there's not a HUGE difference in cost. I am also still contemplating doing what...

    [updated] APPROXIMATE Cost of building an 8x12 shed or buying one

    Thank you so much! You guys are awesome! You've helped me a lot. I never thought of looking for used shed! And I really wanted to know APPROXIMATELY how much a shed would cost to build (no frills). Like I really did not know if it'd cost $200 or $2000! I'm that clueless! So this gives me...

    [updated] APPROXIMATE Cost of building an 8x12 shed or buying one

    I want to build a chicken coop that is 8x12. I saw some sheds at Lowes that were over $1,400. Now I'm wondering how much would it cost (approximately) to build one if I, say, bought all the materials from Lowes? IF it'll cost the same to make as it does to buy a shed, perhaps I should go that...
