Remodeled my Garage into a coop, Pic Heavy

I love your coop. Your dogs are adorable.

Looks good but one question What are you gonna do with all the (good stuff) that belongs in a garage I could have a 10 car garage and I can fill it up! After all a mans gotta have a place to keep his toys or (good junk) as my sweetie says. (She still don't get it that a garage is no place to store Christmas ornaments) Where I'm from a big garage is more important than a big house! At least the boys think so. All kidding aside the coop looks awsome.

They seem suitably impressed by it!

I have to wonder why so many people on here have significant others who are not nearly as impressed by the poultry. Apparently it's not just the women who are trying to fly under the radar with more birds!

No doubt, The wife and I are like oil and water when it comes to chickens lol, lol and she thinks I'm totally nuts and laughs at me when I go for coffee in the mornings and then sit outside enjoying my coffee and spending time watching my feathered friends

You would think she would get used to them lol but no way. I guess she will have to give up on me not having chickens and I will keep wearing on her lol, lol


Its all good tho

She does like fresh eggs

It is therapeutic, there are two things I need to complete my day, sitting with my chickens in the field and giving them treats and a little bit of BYC before going to bed.

She'll warm up to the chickens!!

Where in Baltimore are ya at?? I live in Taneytown,

I am breeding my Delaware pullets to my Cuckoo Maran Rooster so if you want some eggs for hatching just let me know. They should make for some good laying hens and look similar to Barred Rocks. What breed of chickens do you have??





I can't take all of the design credit for the coop because thanks to an Awesome site ""The BYC"" and a ""Great group of Chicken people""

I had plenty of ideas to choose from and able merge into my own

Here are some pics of some of the finishing touches

I decided to use lattes seal/cover the top of the run, figure it will block some of the Sun and support a tarp during the Winter

I still have lots of odds and ends but that will give me things to tinker with in the evenings after work

LOL I just read this and am dying laughing here...thank you for the chuckles. I can see "the look" now and could imagine her thoughts when she saw the holes in the concrete to go out to their runs.

Lucky man to have her...but I would still watch myself for awhile. hahahaha


Excellent job though.

Are there any couples where they are both chicken lovers? Or would that lead to a "hoarding disorder"???

That is a lot of work!! and it is looking very nice!!
