We have been raising chickens for about 10 years now. We 14 Rhode Island reds , 12 are chicks , 2 bantums , and one silky rooster. He's currently residing with the 2 bantums. I found this site because we are looking for a better coop with lots of space for scratching when I can't let them free range. We live on about 79 acres of natural woodlands in west TN. So we have predator issues as well: raccoon, weasel, owl, fox, bobcat, eagle and about once every three years panther. I have recently been given a dog kennel and am currently gathering ideas using it to make a coop. Any ideas would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
