Chicken House Project


I decided a couple of weeks ago that I would build a chicken house during my vacation. So yesterday I spent the day looking up plans and trying to decide what kind to build. I'm still not 100% sure, but I'm getting close to a decision. It will be a blend of "easy to build" and "cheap". We only want about six chickens, so it doesn't have to be big. And I have pretty much decided on where it will be built. So now that the hard stuff is decided, I only need to build it. Shouldn't take long. But factoring in the tear-it-apart-and-start-over-because-you-
messed-it-up-the-first-time, I allow as how it will be done by spring. Just in time!

Having great expectations, I have taken the above "before" photo of the site.
