How's your coop coming along?

It's coming along great. finally have it on wheels. Waiting for my expansion panels for the kennel to come in. I've decided to make this playhouse a bantam coop. I have about 23 3 week old bantam chicks in the house right now and 4 adult bantams out with my standards.

I must have missed that PM. I'm so glad I could help you out!!!! Looks great!!! Apparently the guy got a few phone calls for playhouse.

Simple solution. Send ME one of your gorgeous coops! Yup, solves it nicely.

My friends drove all the way out there for me.. And I am shocked..for the price..it is extremely well built
The weirdest thing that blows my mind..
How the heck you got wheels on it?
It can't even be lifted..it so heavy

I love it though..I can stand up in it..that's what got me thinking oh wow..could I put all of them in one..whoop whoop

But heck maybe I will just keep a rooster out of the bantys..decisions..decisions

Ayayay

My husband used a heavy duty jack to lift one end and added wheels. 12" wheels for TSC and now it's mobile. There is someone in NJ that got a 6X8 unpainted playhouse for $600. man, wish I knew knew about that deal.

You see my other coop, that is on wheels and I can barely pull it

So the other one..now that we set it in place..lol, No wheels..it's on skids so it can be moved..

But hey more power to y for putting wheels on it

So much still be done..
Hey don't you just love all the built in mini ledges? Perfect to lay roost bar over..eh?.

 

[madamwlf]

I love it. Such a great lil coop. Can't wait to get it all set up and the chicks moved out.

Well, I also wanted it up off the ground and the wheels were perfect. Moving it will be a pain but I'm thinking of putting a hitch on it too.

Oh now you tell me

I sent in deposit and we'll receive the victorian playhouse 6x8 next week (hopefully) and it was $660 plus shipping and assmeble ($200) I still think it's a bargain. I've checked very similiar to that style playhouse, take a look below.

WannaBchick; you're coops looks great. Just make a big run to that bigger coop/playhouse and use the other portable playhouse as broody home or breeding of some sort. Good luck
