empty school bus as a chicken house?

[bonniebe]

any thoughts on using an empty school buss as a chicken house. it seems the floor would be easy to clean, windows would provide plenty of light and ventilation. would be more weather tight than what they spent their first winter in (stock trailer). i think it could work! lets's have it guys!

A guy I work with uses an Dept of Corrections bus as a brooder. Guess what breed? Barred Rocks. Isn't that funny?

Oh, just make sure it's not a Short Bus.

make sure its insulated well.. buses are tin cans on wheels in MI i would worry about temps... but my neighbor uses one for his pigs (meat pigs)... they are VERY predator proof

Actually after clearing out the seats etc. I think it would work great in climates that are neither to cold or hot. Metal heats and cools quickly. gloria Jean

How funny!!! Yeah, a stripped out school bus would work!! It would be unique (although maybe not as unique as a Dept. of Corrections bus full of barred rocks...lol).
