i was looking for a blue print for biulding a new coop

Also google "Shed plans" or "Playhouse Plans". The American Plywood Association has some REALLY detailed ones on their website you can download and print for free.

I would highly recommend the book "Building Chicken Coops For Dummies". It's excellent and has many detailed plans, instructions, etc.

I have also purchased coop plans for relatively cheap in the past on ebay. They usually ended up being for something much more extensive than what we had in mind.

In the Coops section of the BYC page, some of those have plans/instuctions on how they were built.

Its actually the Virginia Cooperative Extension Center site for publications. Scroll down to Animal Agriculture and click on Poultry. I know there are at least three different sizes on there.

Oh wow, those are HUGE! They would take up all of our front yard.

Thanks for sharing though, maybe someone else can use those plans, they are really nice.

well when we moved here to the fam farm we had the club house i mean we use to play in it when we were all little it at that big but good for pobs 50 or more chickens but hope i dont get that bad i was going to take the club house in to the pen with my fams goats and fence in a area out there by the barn to have everything what you all think the club house is old and needs some work but other than that it is ok its pretty big though

I am going to build a Daisy Coop too! How do you like yours? Anything you would change? Also where are you located- I am in N California, relatively mild winters. (usually)
