chick shed

i saw this cl add this person had all these brooders in a shed with heat and it look really nice anyone have sheds they use to keep chicks in ?

I do. It's a bit nicer than a reg shed. It looks like a miniature of our house and used to be used as a workshop. It's fully capable of heat/a/c, interior lights and even wired for cable though we have no tv in there. We're currently building a coop to go inside of it since letting the chickens roam free in there has caused a huge mess to clean.

I'll be sure to take pics when we're done (hopefully tomorrow).

I have a pen in the shed, I keep all my breeders in there

I like it because I don't get the color messed up by colors, my house isn't dusty from chicks and when introducing they have seen each others the whole time, so it goes smoother.
