#1 Genius idea making your coop portable!! Do you sell your Coops?
great video as always and relevant, we want as maintenance free as we can get but at 10$/doz eggs coming fast, we'd like to get 4-5 chickens a laying soonest! thanks elise!
BTW, Jacqueline from wild Floridian YouTube mentioned you in one of her videos a few videos back… Thanks for this information , I really enjoy watching videos from my "local" youtubers (I'm in NE Florida).I think you two are around the same area, SW Florida…. love you both!!✌✌✌👍👍👍❤🦩🦩🦩🦩
I built a 4×8 coop with an enclosed 15×15 run for free using pallets and materials gathered from friends. let people know you need stuff and it will show up. great video, good tips
What are your thoughts on a chicken tractor, like the Eglu?
Never thought I would have chicken envy, but there you are. Had a good laugh thinking of my HOA neighbors' faces as they wake to sounds of clucking, that would be so great, but alas! Enjoyed your video, though impossible for me.
I built mine and as you said modified it through the years. One thing I will always recommend is the water nipple method. They can be made or bought with a 5 gallon bucket. The water stays clean and can go days or weeks if needed without changing. They kinda have to be taught to use them but learn from each other.
Great to see such a wide variety of chicken coops for ideas. Glad you asked what they would change if they had to do it again. Lots of lessons there. Love your new automated feeder + water for your coop! P.S. Loved your shirt at the end 😉
Great info as always! Didn't see the link at the end, where you mentioned a video about raising chickens.
One thing that sticks out is that your actual coop isn’t completely enclosed. Back in Sacramento, our coop had a single small door with light ventilation…but it’s an arid climate. I was going to build my new one here in St. Pete similarly but am now wondering if I should instead make something more open. Is yours always so open or was part of the wood panel missing for the sake of the video?
Some great ideas. Thanks for sharing. 💖 🙏✌️
