    Our DIY Coop and Tractors

    (NE North Carolina) We are new at chickens. Our first flock was purchased in March 2018. It was pretty cold when we purchased our first 10 RIRs, so they were living in an ever expanding cardboard box "condo" in my office and we hadn't built our coop yet. When I noticed their dust baths were...

    How to keep chicken coop cool?

    Hi all: I have a walk-in outdoor coop, and the hot summer sun hits the doorway around 5-7 pm. I've been keeping all of my empty juice containers and filling them with water, freeze them and put them around in the coop at night to keep it cool. My biggest concern is that it's going to hit...

    Is it ok?

    I currently own 10 chickens and they are in dire need of a new coop, I found a really nice one but it says that it’s suitable for 8 chickens. Would it be possible for them to fit in there comfortably? Or would it be inhuman or would it be possible?

    Backyard but small area for chicken coop

    I am going to build a chicken coop, something with inspiration from this, and then place it in my backyard to keep my 3 chickens.
