DIY Chicken coop guide with videos - has anybody ordered this???

[TarHeelBlue]

I have looked at the "ads" for the DIY Chicken coop guide - Has anybody else used this??? They offer a "special" price of $29.95 with a money back guarantee. I am always leary of these ads, but this looks good??? I just need some advice, as I don't want to put money into something that is basically useless. They state even someone who doesn't build things can follow these directions?? (that's if the hubby doesn't chip in and help

)

No experience with it. for 29.95 might be worthwile since it will probably give you some building basics.
I enjoy building things myself and can tell you that there is a steep learning curve so any help is nice to have.

I'm skeptical, too. You can always check at your local library first and see what's available free. Many libraries have good basic books about building, or can get what you want on inter/intra library loan.

In my opinion, the trickiest thing is figuring out what you want to build (what design will work best for your climate and will be easy to clean, etc.). Once you figure that part out, the building part is not that difficult ...unless you want to build the Taj Mahal of chicken coops.

There are a lot of really awful chicken coop designs out there. Sometimes it seems to me that the design must have come from someone who has never even seen a chicken in real life, much less taken care of one.
