Just a quick question. Can I make a coop out of a 8 times 12 wooden storage shed? I am looking to make one and wanted to know if I can save a little money buying a shed insted of alot of materials to make it.
Thank you,
Bridie
There are several people on this thread that have converted storage sheds into coops. If you have time to go back over previous posts there are many conversion photos. What you need to be aware of is that the OSB particle board shed interiors used in some sheds will need to be completely sealed/painted. Some BYCers bought the all Rubbermaid sheds to eliminate having to deal with crumbly OSB particle board walls. Your choice of shed - as long as you're aware of the modifications needed to use them as coops (i.e. - ventilation, a chicken pop-door, windows, secure locks, secure foundation, sealer/paint on OSB, etc).
