Building a Chicken Coop

This coop is the inspiration for the one I am building. I’m sure mine will be a little different, but the concept will be the same. I however am using old pallets that a friend of mine got for free. The only thing I bought brand new for the coop is a water dish, a feeder, and the chicken wire. The rest is all recycled from whatever is given to us or what we can find in the backyard. Part of the run will actually be built from my mom’s old gazebo that she had set up over the deck. It will add some nice touches with some scrollwork. We are so close to finishing I am getting excited. It is very satisfying to see something you work on come to life, even if it does take a little longer to complete. That’s what will make finishing that much sweeter.
