Recyceled duck coop- less than $20

[Cbrock2]

So far we have spent $3 on our coop for screws... probably get some more and some hinges and locks, but all in all our coop for our three ducks should not cost more than $20.00 for a 3x4x4 coop.

We looked on craigslist for free wood, and picked up wood from all around town, and this is the result so far... only have to finish the sides and the doors left....

Nice job! are those windows covered with any wire? hard to tell in the pic, wouldn't want anyone getting in for a duck dinner.

yes i have that 1/4" hardware mesh over the vent hole... i just happened to have a piece that was big enough for what i needed. that wire is spendy!
