I wanted an outhouse (just for decoration) and my DH would never build me one. Sooooo...when I decided to get chickens my dad (the best one in the world) helped me build the outhouse/chicken coop! Well, finally my DH has built me a bigger coop (not an outhouse) but I'm still going to keep the outhouse coop. It will make for a good brooder coop or chicken hospital.
