What a beautifully done book ruclips.net/user/postUgkxo4aMFkUegBx-KHPIJlfwKPHu7kQXAR9N ! The text and the photographs are brilliant. It is thorough and genuinely informative. Joseph Truini got another winner! No one does it better! Love the Cape Cod Shed with the Blue door!
great job! my only suggestion to those who would try and build this coop is to have the chicken wire buried 4-6 inches in the ground all the way around the coop foundation or your feathery little friends will dig themselves out! Chickens are very determined to find a way out!
We have had these up for a few years now and have no trouble with them digging out. We also let them out during the day.
I’ve raised chickens for years and never had any dig themselves out…..
I like this but i do think wire on the bottom is a good idea to keep predators from digging under tne tin
They do dig out
We have never had our chickens to dig out. We free range them during the day and they only go up at night.
Been watching videos like this for 2 yrs while I save for my homestead. Im not a city girl and the suburbs is to restrictive. Watching these videos confirms my decision. I know where I belong. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 😊
Glad we could help
We live in urban area.. we getting CHICKANS!!
Been looking for a way to use some old tin to build a coop and this is a perfect way for me to recycle some of it. I can make a larger coop for way less money. Thanks for sharing this simple build for someone with no building skills like me. 63 year old female . I can do this. ✌
One of the things I love more than watching videos like this is getting out there and making my own. Thank you sir and compadrays
Excellent work mate, most people these days are making a hotel for chooks, this is effective and used materials already on hand....Good looking coop mate
BTW, you earned a sub for it
Thanks Here is the link to our first coop video if you need more information. ruclips.net/video/_eUZYLNNQ48/видео.html
"Hotel for chooks" 😂😂😂
This is just what we needed to see. My husband, sons, and I will be building our first coop and run . We are on a tight budget and have limited supplies like the supplies in this video. Thanks for making this video.
What do people use a coup and run for ?
@@elhambromell1179 Runs are often used if you have limited space and to protect from predators, vs free range.

That was great, can't find men like you any more.Thank you for making a coop as simple as 1,2,3.great job.
Thanks so much for the kind words. Glad you like the video.
hehe
nothing like a full 8 minutes of the same soothing, generic, country jingle you would hear in the background of any local furniture sales tv commercial from 1998. with a little random hammering blended over top. Exactly the instructional I was looking for. I understood every word. I'm kidding to an extent but..nice work with salvaging the metal roof and materials. Also, this coop looks like something you'd see in the rural countryside on Grand theft auto.
My Childhood friends Had One Just Like This Growing Up.
Thank you so much for this video. Been trying to find predator free coop I can make myself, no luck till today! The holes for the 4x4 may prove difficult, but I think everything else I can do by myself. Thanks again.
This is brilliant thank you so much for sharing ...information
I do love the simplicity of this. Very innovative! 👏👌
Hi! We just got some Rio Poults ourself and I’m researching everyone’s coops before we start ours. Glad I found your channel! Nice To Meet You!
Just bought 4 easter egger chickens and I think I'm gonna make this exact coop. I'm not a carpenter at all so wish me luck.
We got are chicken coop that my parents had when the were young and rebuilt the floor and walls. We didn’t really have a budget but it came out good. We made a nice wooden run and then we took a metal dog pen and built that onto the front of the wooden run.
that's great
This is the way we make our small duck and chicken coop in my country. Cheap and simple.
Ohhhhh, I have the same old scrap tin laying around. Bout to build my coop.
That’s great
I love that two dogs
Wow... Thanks for sharing information...
Love from India ❤️
Nice and simple, thank you for sharing
Glad you liked it. It is still working good over three years later.
Thank you I am doing this for my meat chickens already have the lumber and a whole roll of 1x1 wireing left over from meat rabbit cages so only need a couple sheets of roofing tin 😁
Here is the link to our first coop video if you need more information. ruclips.net/video/_eUZYLNNQ48/видео.html
@@LivingSmallAndLovingLarge i need to rescue a huge amount thank you
I'm looking for ideas for a new goose hut. This is perfect. Thank you.
Yay I found a coop that I can build and I have leftover tin from our barn, and posts. Does it keep racoons out? And thanks for showing how to use snips I tried but I couldn't figure it out 🤣
wow i love it and its really the same of my plan in my new chicken coop
Thanks
I have physical limitations. I don’t know how I would lift and carry these things and to affix a roof on top. Other than that this looks simple enough to do. Maybe I can use pallets instead and to not make mine so high where I will need a ladder or something. I really needed to see your way of doing this. I want to see more from you. Thank you for this video.
Super very good idea and beautiful
Great i dint buildt mine like this because i had no tin but i did use a bunch of leftover pieces and close around a wooden bed buyng all new can be expensive
Nice one.. happy farming Godbless
thanks
Un video perfecto justo lo que estaba buscando.
Felicitaciones.
Thanks
l like your coop so much, it is so easy to make thank you for showing us on u-tube,keep on giving us more ideas
Looking good brother. Tidewater VA
So I was wondering on how I can start my village chicken poultry....with this that you've share it's attainable coz I have the material to make that....
great glad you found it helpful
Indeed is any budget scoop.
I like you're coop published on my birthday:) But was it nescesarry to cut the tin. Why not use tin's whole length,and just place posts at appropriate places along it;ie ends/middles etc and save the tin and the cutting.
Looks like a call of duty map
I always make sure to bury my chicken wire at least 18" out from the coop. Critters give up trying to dig in to get my chickens that way.
We have never had anything try to dig in. The first of these has been built for almost 5 years.
Thank you for the video, I am making it in few days :)
Awwww loved the 🐐Susie ❤
About to start my chicken coop... i am really great full for this vedio
Thanks
Are all sides even? I worry about the rain collecting on top of the roof and not falling off. Thanks!
Very nice macking brother
Thanks
No me canso de mirar el video 10/10. Felicitaciones.
Me ayuda con las measurements place.
It is 10 foot x 20 foot
Ya gracias amigos.
Thanks mate. Straightforward design. Love it.
Susie don’t eat that box! 😂😂😂❤🐐🐕
with chicken pens you should dig down a few inches in the ground were the tin is to help keep varmints out and chickens in
We have never had any problems with this type of coop where we are. We have used this style for 4 years.
I really like what you did here. Do you also have rabbits? Can you please explain how you built a rabbit hutch?
I'm gonna build one like this thanks for the video...and good job on the coup
OMG me too... For humble beginnings... I will start with this
Anna megerments please
them shepards are going to love them chickens
They have never bothered the chickens.
Just completed my 12×8 because of this design. Unfortunately, I didn't have only material to start off with and invested in cured wood. The material alone I'm looking at roughly $1,500. But man it is everything I could of imagined. Thank you for uploading your video.
Great glad we would help
Excellent💯 good
Thanks for the inspection really helps
Thank you for the vid and alternate ideas for those like me on a tight budget
Excellent!!
Glad you like it!
Great video 🙏 What would you suggested to keep predators from digging in. We previously had a fox situation
Cool very good sir
Awesome
My coop had airconed.and a television set.
Very nice and practical. I'm impressed. 👍
Thanks. I hope you found it helpful.
Love the concept but we have raccoons so I would have to bury the bottom portion about a foot or pour concrete around it to make it more predator proof.
We have been blessed not to have a predictor problem getting in the coops we only have problems when they are outside. We have a hawk problem but have put up owl decoys that have helped
Just lay 2ft out from coup 1x1 wireing attach to coup they won’t get in also instead of chicken wire run that 1x1 wire they can’t get thru it’s what I did to my meat rabbit leanto we have possum bobcat coyote
nice job!
Thanks
Thanks you sharing
Thanks for watching
It looks great! So easy. May I ask how big it is?
It is 12 foot by 20 foot
Hanks so much for sharing your skil with l the practical Demonstration fo bonus. I started on a chicken house of 20ft×10 ft so I have a great affirmation. Blessing
Nice like it .👏👏👏
Thanks for watching and commenting.
One of the best .... wow super.
This video was so awesome
Excellent work, how many chickens can we grow in this coop
Because we let them out during the day we can keep up to 24 birds in this coop.
wow....This is what I plan to make one for myself, I probably steal your idea
no stealing involved we are here to inspire
Belle construction !
Très simple et rapide.
J'adore
Very economical building
Thanks
This is more what I had in mind for a cheap DIY.. most so called DIY's on RUclips are built by experts and look like they cost 2k.
So glad you found this helpful. We truly believe in using what you have or recycling materials if possible. No need to spend a fortune, just get creative.
Yesss I was just looking they got windows and, a house plus a large run.
My fav one thanks
Thanks
That’s the way to build a coop
Thank you. Glad you like it.
very good
Very nice , thanks for sharing
What is the total cost?
It was mostly scrap/reused material so the only new purchase was the 4x4 posts. With wood prices now I wouldn’t have any idea. If using recycled materials you could probably do it for under $200
@@LivingSmallAndLovingLarge Thank you.
What a beautiful Australian Shepard!!!!
Thanks
Animals can dig under that
What would you do differently?
We have not had any issues with animals digging under
Female here whats the name of the metal cutting scissors. Best one I seen yet me myself I'll probably cuz I'm so skittish of the animals at night trying to pray on my chicken I will put some electric fencing on the outside before they can actually get to the coop
This is a fantastic video,thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it
Excelente 😊
Looks just like my grandmas one
Very nice
Thanks
need a little heaver hammer like a framing hammer
first storm the chickens all got out and the building collapsed lol jj
We have had this pen up through lots of storms and it has held up great. One thing that is important it making sure your post are deep in the ground.
Living Small And Loving Large thank you !! The brother in law is making one like your video thanks so much !!!!
Great I’m glad you found it helpful.
@@LivingSmallAndLovingLarge must you use concrete to embed the wooden poles to be storm proof?
We didn’t add any concrete and they have done well.
The best idea thank u
Thanks so much
love the music
I hate it
Nice
You forgot to bury these corrugated sheet 10 inches into the ground. And believe me i know what i'm talking about. I would also recommend a concrete slab if you want to avoid rats coming in and eating your eggs
Thanks for the idea. These have been up for almost 4 years now and we have never had any problems with predators getting inside. Also we have a farm cat that keeps the rats gone so we have never had an issue with them either.
Nic video brother tnku somacha 🙏🇮🇳
Thanks
Looks great! For how many chickens?
I wonder if my 600psi bolt cutter can cut through the metal roofing sheet too.
Cheap metal snips work fine
Thank you max
How do you get a wood post in the ground without cementing it?
The post were put in with a post hole digger. If you put them down at least 10inches will keep them steady. As well as making sure the dirt is packed very well.
I love it!
Do you have cuts and measurements on how to build that same coop
You needed a center brace . And screws would have worked better
Can you explain. I need to make one fast for rescues
Good one...
Good Good Good
Thanks
Good video. Even if just for the Aussie lol
Nice 👍
Thanks
