CJ that is like a chicken mansion haha. You’ve thought of everything. You could seriously go into business selling fully automated chicken coops. Awesome job buddy
WOW.... I have never seen such HIGH TECH “HILTON CHICKEN COOP “ before... love it ! Excellent research on everything ! Ralph was making my kitties nervous...LOL!! What a handsome boy he is! Nice coloring. Hope you had a great vacation....Pray everyone is well ! So great to see you! 🙏
Nice. Glad you guys can get away a few days without having to worry about the chickens... now you just have get the auto picker for the eggs and you got a 21st century chicken coop ;)
Good morning CJ and the rest of the family too ! Glad everything was safe and sound when you all got home. Good job on the Coop set up 👍👍. Good to see you again. Fred.
@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse Jeez me too! Hahaha, I have a tiny garden. This morning I found a great big FAT ripe strawberry and ate it whilst doing a victory dance n giggle...it didn't even reach the kitchen tap😂😂. It's the little things in life that are the sweetest. I turned 60 yrs on the 21st June... all of my life I have wanted to keep my own chickens but alas it is not possible yet. Still hoping🤞🏽🤞🏽😁. I LOVE your chicken Chateau, you have made such a good job. Praying you are all blessed with beautiful healthy chickens and eggs. Much love to you all. xx
Yes!!! CJ's Insta sent me 3 messages today that my pics. were chosen. Now I must say it was a FANTASTIC pic. of me & Ange so I kinda believed it for a sec. Hoping all is well guys, Dirty Jersey out!!
Probably not. Using the deep litter method in the coop, their poop should generate enough heat to help keep them warm. I've read of a few instances where someone had a heater in the coop and their power went out in the night. Ended up losing all their chickens because they weren't acclimated to the cold. I would be devastated 😢
So many absolutely fantastic features in that Coop!! Sooooo when can I sleep over in it??? Oh man where do I come up wit dem?? I kill myself!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
nice water system, I myself need to predator proof my chickens run so they can go in and out during the summer months on their own so I can sleep in. we have a ton of predators around here but so far so good only lost 3 chickens due to them not coming back tothe coop due to broodiness and me not being able to find them to put them into the coop.
@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse try plantint shurbs and bushes near their coop and provide plenty of places for them to run under dont give themsomething where they can be cornered by a fox or coyote, they hunt during the day too, do you havea dog let it pee near the coop, predators hate the smell of another predator. another thing is to wait until later morning when the sun is fully up, to let them out and remember they can spot a predator long before any human and that they are better at protecting themselves then we can. but i love my little monsters and hate to loose even one to a bigger monster.
I installed that same ladies first door. The door works wonderfully, however, since installing it my chickens won't go in the coop at night. They go in during the day, but sleep on an outside roost at night. Any idea why and how to correct this behavior? TIA.

Those pampered chickens sure owe you some eggs now. Great set up especially the idea of extending the chain so nothing can dig under. 👍👏

You got that right! haha.. Take care Mark!

Chicken coop is awesome! Very ingenious to set it up so you can leave for awhile. Can't wait to see what you're doing to fix up the house next.
Thank you very much! Chicken house done.. now on to the people house lol

Sure looks like you have got the perfect setup for you & your chickens .... enjoyed the video 🐓🐓🐓
Thanks Beth! It sure has been fun adding all these little upgrades and figuring it all out.. ready for some eggs now!
That is a great set up CJ If we went away for 7 days we would come home to around 400 eggs so we have to have someone take care of our chickens...lol
Haha thanks Thomas! Give me some time to think about it and I'll try to come up with a solution for the eggs lol
@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse I think that one is going to be a tough one for anyone
Cool set up!! New subscriber!!
Thanks buddy! It's still working great for us 3 years later 👍
superb
Thanks 🤗
Nice set up CJ, sounds like you'll be getting some "free" eggs before too long.
Thanks Jake! Those eggs are bought and paid for lol... probably for the next 10 years haha
Well hey there CJ. You're up late. I actually got nothing this time.i like the water setup

Money Making Mike G. Haha!! Looks like Mike is next to get hacked.... haha!!!
You know me Mike, I would never be able to only pick 3 of your pictures... they are all too awesome!! lol
Mallard 5 Farmhouse 😂😂😂
That coop is awesome. Will you put a heater in there for the winter? Thanks for sharing. Stay safe. Ken
Probably not. Using the deep litter method in the coop, their poop should generate enough heat to help keep them warm.
I've read of a few instances where someone had a heater in the coop and their power went out in the night. Ended up losing all their chickens because they weren't acclimated to the cold. I would be devastated 😢
We have one in our coop set for the really cold nights, other wise it stays off.
So many absolutely fantastic features in that Coop!! Sooooo when can I sleep over in it??? Oh man where do I come up wit dem?? I kill myself!! Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Haha thanks Mike!

We also just lost 3 chickens.. so many predators here. I am still thinking of ways to let them free range somehow

I wonder since you have now painted the barrel black to block the light, if you now could paint it white ? 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah I probably could Annette. Might keep the water cooler too 👍

Ours never did that Duane but I have read about people installing a small light inside the coop to bring their chickens in at night 👍
What is the wifi booster you purchased to make your coop camera work? I am having sporadic connectivity issues with my ring camera out in the coop.
We just had an old simple Netgear wifi booster.. I think they make even better ones that reach longer distances now
