Build a Chicken Coop

The first thing you must do as you build a chicken house is take the time to plan the entire coop before you build. Many people make the mistake of building too early and then find out they have built too small because of all the additional pieces that have to go inside.

Remember that the measurements that you get in terms of total free space are just that - free space. If you start adding the feeders, the waterers, the perches, and so on, this will take away from the total amount of free space you have, making your chickens feel more crowded.

To solve this problem, draw a blueprint out first and then proceed to build a chicken house according to that design.

Next, you also need to make sure that you're giving your chickens enough total light. This is accomplished by being sure you add enough windows throughout the coop which will serve to allow the sun to shin in.

Just be sure with these windows that you are not placing them too low or the sun may shine directly at the chickens, which can make them feel uncomfortable. Locate the main direction the sun typically hits your chicken coop and be sure to focus your windows on that side of the house.

Finally, as noted above, size is one of the biggest things you must take into consider as you build a chicken house. If you aren't sure how many chickens you plan to keep, it's a smart move to build slightly larger than you think you'll need, then if you do decide to add one or two more, you will have enough room.

The worst situation is when a chicken farmer builds the perfect size coop but then finds out he needs more chickens. Then you have to tare down the coop and rebuild parts of it or else add an extension onto the coop that's in place.

So be sure you're following these three tips as you build a chicken house. The process may seem quite intricate but by using a building plan that breaks it down into manageable steps, it really becomes something that you can easily handle over the course of a weekend.
