Chicken architects Club

I must say, I have never seen such amazing builders as this group of Backyard hobbyists. Maybe it's just my lack of carpentry skills and a handyman DH., but these coops are feats of architecture!! Am I the only one amazed by the high standard being set by BYC?! Sometimes it seems that the chicken coop looks prettier and better then the house (where the people live). There must be a word for that! Kudos to all the builders out there!

Hi and nope, you're not alone in being amazed by some of the members' coops. I'm always pointing out coops that I fall in love with to Skip...poor guy!

I know our prefabricated coops are much nicer than the trailer/mobile home we're renting...that's why we've named the place the Brokedown Palace (from a Grateful Dead song).

You are so right-have you ever seen these tours that some cities have?

Very neat-we're going to at least one of them this year

I love it! That is a great idea. We should all be doing chicken coop tours for interested chicken owners and tourists! Fantastic idea. Bring people over to OUR side. And we could serve breakfast... or Quiche.

* I LOVE the coops and if People could decorate em bigtime for Christmas and then you could have 2 tours in one!!!! (I have no building skills either-- but I know how to string lights!!) :goofyme:
