How To Build a Chicken Coop - Tips
Here's some quick tips on how to build a chicken coop:
* First things first, create a good design. Make sure it's not going to be something your neighbors will complain about. Also, keep it in good shape (grass trim, weeds cut, etc.)
* Use material that is easy to clean.
* Slope the floor slightly towards the door so when you spray the inside, the water will naturally drain out.
* Have windows that can be open and shut with appropriate screening around them.
* Insulate your walls to keep your chickens warm (and dry!)
* Have your windows facing south so they can get maximum sunlight
