- We are prepping our girls for a hot summer ahead, and are being pro-active with keeping the coop cool for the summer. One way we are helping them out is installing solar powered fans to circulate the air in the coop. Hopefully this will make them nice and comfy!

Yes, your chickens are definitely getting spoiled 😂 Steph & Buddy, you both are Wonderful 💖🙏
Just a suggestion, but since heat rises, do you think one fan could be placed high up to draw the hot air out, then one fan placed lower to draw air in.
What I was thinking as well
I was just going to say they have it pretty good. Spoiled but safe! It does look real cute. Another awesome project complete 👍♥️🐓
Great idea guys. I'm sure your chickens will appreciate cooler nights.
you mean when the sun isnt out powering the fans?
That was a good idea for your spoiled chickens. Got to keep them happy so you get some great eggs. Thankyou and have a happy day. 😊 I love it when Elora is out wanting to help.
You tube it, someone has directions
Your chicken coop really looks fantastic. Those chickens are definitely living their best lives, now that they have fans to keep them cool. They're very spoiled chickens. Hope y'all have a wonderful and blessed day.
Hi guys, what’s next, an inground pool? 😂😂😂😂 Those chickens better appreciate all you do for them, it’s like a resort now! ❤❤❤
LOL ,those chickens lay golden eggs !! ❤
❤️❤️❤️
@Maria CANCER Look up fenbendazole for cancer. I did that. Also Joe Tippens. look him up also. Good luck and God bless you on your journey to health and wellness!
The Hilton of chicken coops
Good morning Denmans. I look forward to your videos every day! Y'all are a great family.
There some lucky chickens 🐓🐮🌻🦆🐈⬛🦚🐄🐐🐝🐷❤️
Great job guys looks great. Hi, Alora
I loved at the end one of the chickens looking in making sure you were getting it right 😅.👋💚☘️
I absolutely love the ideal of the fan's for the chickens because of the amount of heat y'all get down there in Texas and Yes y'all's chickens are very spoiled but they are going to give y'all some fabulous eggs and whatever else y'all decide to do with them. Great video and God bless y'all keep up the great job y'all 🙏🥰
That is one cool looking chicken coop you two! Keep on keepin' on!
The chickens aren’t spoiled they are loved and taken care of. Have an awesome day! Wendy❤️🇺🇸🙏🏻
Wow…. You two think of everything 🎉❤ those chickens 🐓 will lay eggs 🥚 Greatest Job! Chicken Resort and Spa.❤
Hi guys! Good morning! Just a quick thought while watching this. Anything and I do mean anything you buy without instructions especially electronic you can find on RUclips step by step instructions. I figured this out awhile ago when a lot of products started going paperless. sucks in someways but I learn by watching better anyway. Just a tip. Looks good guys. Have a blessed day
You might want to hang a tarp over the coop so the shed doesn't get direct Texas sun! It would keep the coop atleast 10 degrees cooler.😊
I used a sun sail, works great!
Very cool ♥️♥️♥️
The chickens are gonna have a "cool" coop. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
I want to live in your chicken coop!🤣🤣 Seriously, it really is the nicest chicken coop I have ever seen. ❤️🙏
You make everything look so neat looking!❤
Thanks, Steph and Buddy, for the solar power fan idea on your chicken coop. Nicely done, and again, I love the banter between you both. You feed off of each other well. Your videos are always fun and informative to watch.
The rest of Morrow Hill better step up their chicken coop game 🤪🐔🐥🐣🦆
What an amazing chicken coop, guys!!💙🩷👍🐤🐥🐤
That is awesome!
Aloha looks just like Stephanie. Such a pretty little girl and loves helping in the garden and with the chickens.
It’s Elora 😊
Awesome job👍❤️❤️⭐️⭐️
These two people are sooo sweet,love watching their journey 🌞🐔🐤🐥🦋❤️😊🇺🇸
Great job!
Everything looks great! Steph, you and Buddy are so talented! I love it! ❤
You guys are “wicked smot” ❤
Definitely read this in the Holly voice
Hi guys, I had to see the solar fans. You guys are awesome and fun!
Great job an amazing teamwork!😊
Wow guys! Wanna come and install some AC for me? lol... nice job!
We’re fans of solar power for the environment and cost, nice job Steph and Buddy ❤
That fan should greatly improve circulation and reduce the ammonia levels!
Hi 👋 Stephanie and Buddy🎉❤
Oh you can drill around the corner , let’s hope it works
Next a solar panel for the lights and doors there is room on the roof , country living hihi
Nice
Hi 👋 Stephanie, Buddy, and Elora. The fans are a great idea for the chicken coop. ❤
Buddy doesn’t need instructions he’s a master plumber and fixer upper lol now add HVAC guy to his repertoire😂
Ken you are going to make it hard for him to walk through doors now. LOL!
@@thedenmanhomestead hahaha he does have a slightly large noggin but he will just build a bigger door🤣
Your chickens will love you and give you many Beautiful eggs❤
What a great idea! You're going to have some very happy girls!
You might consider some foil back insulation for the ceiling Lowe’s or Home Depot very easy to install you won’t be sry Yw
We are thinking about doing this too!
Y’all are top shelf lol. No shit show at the Denmans atleast not on the internet haha ❤️❤️👍
Y’all coop is state of the art. Others I’ve seen are state of the ark. Great job guys. If I were I chicken I would love you for making me comfortable.
That’ll be nice for them & you when cleaning once the temps rise!
Happy chickens = egg bounty.. win win
She gonna be giving them coffee and muffins in bed every day! What a pair of talented, caring people. Beautiful couple!
😂 🤔
Lol! Chick (ory) coffee and cornbread muffins. Actually, it sounds pretty good. 😍
@@pattdunn9845 LOL......I seen what you did there.....😆
That has to be the fanciest chicken coop I’ve ever seen.
I've been watching your videos to catch up. Heads up rhubarb leaves are toxic to humans. Growing up I learned that the hard way. Check out Three Sisters planting. Once you read about it I think you might want to try it. Love your garden. Our city water is too costly to grow one so I'll watch yours😊
Thank you! We aren't growing Rhubarb, Jami is tho.
Love the chicken resort❤ great job!!! Looking forward to the tunnels.
Cool! What a good thing you’re doing!
That’s very cool!
Happiest chickens on Morrow Hill “ The Denman Chicks” ❤🐣
Your chickens are so lucky to have y’all as their parents…you take such good care of them.
That’s a great idea with the fan. I’m curious, will the chickens be able to fly up at the fan, and get their feet/beaks into the fan blades? If need to, maybe a screen in front of the fan blades. Instead of being sent to the dog house, now sent to the chicken coop.
No they cant reach it
Hey y'all, solar powered fan how cool is that.
Wow!! Good job, love it!
My goodness, going to have some spoiled chickens, they might be so grateful they'll lay you a golden egg or two or three or four. 😂🤣😂🤣 Great job 👍🤗💜
Fingers crossed!
Definitely, a little shade above the run will be appreciated even if you just attach some 40% shade cloth over part of it. But they are protected by aerial as well as ground predators! Looks good!
You guys are the bomb!! 👍👍🙋♀
Love this I'm getting ready to install a fan myself in the Ladies Chicken Coop I enjoyed watching your video . I might have to change my mind to solar-powered. Did you find on Amazon?
Hi guys so glad you put the fan in. During the heat of the day you push the air out. At night you pull the fresh air in to cool. I'm so glad to heard me, I'm so isolated, I feel a little part. I hope circulating the air will comfort the chicks!! Blessings Always!!
Y’all are too smart! Such a good team!
Will the rain blow into the coop from the fan opening?
It would have to be a major sideways rain. It's covered under a lip of the roof line
That solar fan is a genius idea. Chickens will benefit during summer. Love this video ❤
Hey Elora
Another amazing project done by Buddy and Stephanie...❤
I live in Florida, where the heat can soar up to the 90s mid-morning. Even though the coop is properly vented, the coop swelters like a sauna at night. As a temporary solution, I use a portable camping fan to dissipate the heat. I need a solar solution to charge a battery and trigger a night fan for temperature management. Running a fan during daylight hours would not be advantageous here. Your flock should be out foraging during the day except when laying eggs in the coop.
The fan is a great idea!!
You and Buddy are such a cute couple. Love how you’re taking such good care of your chickens.
I just bought and installed the same solar fans and I love them and so do my chickens. I'm adding a mister tomorrow morning. NC heat is something else.
Love the fan idea they need that for at night they will be so much more comfortable 😍
I just love you guys! 🥰
Love the way Buddy is on board! Family projects are so cool 😊❤
Great Job! 👍
can you tell us how the fan has been working out since you installed it? Where did you get it? Our girls need a fan in their coop. It gets hot here in Texas.
One fan should pull air in and the other pushes air out. If you set both fans pulling air out they will fight each other. And you won't really cool the shed
You could make that screwdriver into a necklace!
These chickens are living the glamorous life, Bree and Jaime see this they’re going to step up their chicken houses. Lol. Great job
Hi Stephanie, Buddy and Elora, love the fan. The entire chicken house and yard are beautiful. Thanks for sharing, have a good day,be safe love you all
I am in the Austin area and a metal coop with one little fan would not keep my chickens cool enough to survive the heat. How did this work out for you?
Watching you brings to mind, "Where there's a will, there's a way."💕
Woops, I am way behind, didn't notice the time and date. Sorry
Who had the rolling lay boxing, where the eggs rolled to the front?
Hi Buddy and Steph, I knew you’d both figure it out without instructions. My thought was, do you blow air in or draw out.
Maybe just a return air vent on opposite side would make cross ventilation or that could come from screen door too. Nice fan though! Live watching you brainstorm together.
I thought that as well.
I also read that fermenting their feed produces more eggs
That should make you chickens cool enough to lay some pretty good eggs! One can only hope....🥚🥚🐔🐓🐣🐤🐤
❤❤
I'm just curious about how to keep rain from getting in? Maybe a thin ( metal piece) awning on the outside? I have visions of flash dance (movie ) type dancing chickens on the roosting boxes. 😆 🤣 Good team effort of brainstorming.
Have you considered adding a small 12V batteru tp upir system? I have one on ours - a little more hardware, but it will take you into the late evening.
To be fair connecting the solar panel to the fans is self explanatory,buddy wont have any problems with it…and I don’t think you would either Steph.
Is the next project a fence around your garden to keep most animals out? Will you put a big enough gate for the tractor? God Bless and I love y'all 💕💕💕
Kim’s chickens are gonna run away to your chicken coop😂😂😂
Wow you guys have the best chicken coop so far. My chickens would have that also if I lived on a farm. They would be bougie chicks 😂💜🦋
Great job! Our old coop had air-conditioning for the Texas heat and a heat panel for freezing temps
Those handles are gonna look real fancy, like a victorian kitchen unit. ❤
Don't you just hate it when you've ordered stuff and no instructions, sometimes you can go back on line and instructions are on there. Xxx
Those chickens be stylish now. LOL! No really great job.
Good morning Stephanie and Buddy. Hmmm okay you make it work w/o instructions. What I would have done is google the item name and model number and seen if any info would have come up. It looks like you two like to try things on your own. The other thing I was thinking of was to enclose or tape up your spaces underneath where the sun was coming thru. I am on this side of the computer screen sure hope it works great for you throughout the spring, summer and fall and winter for you. Thanks for sharing. HAGD.
Steph, u really r totally spoiling your chickens! But they might return the favor some day by giving u lots of eggs! They now have ideal laying areas!
You can probably find the instructions for the solar power fan online.
