    Shed Coop 2.0

    In the summer of 2023 we tore down the old shed that we converted part of into our coop, and then we built a new shed/coop combo from the ground up. The old coop worked, but the shed was here when we bought the house and it was beginning to show wear. It needed new siding, trim and doors, which...

    Disabled/Can’t Build—Local Prebuilt or Shed Conversion?

    Hello all, I’m in eastern Oklahoma preparing for 10-15 chickens late next spring. (Gardening zone 7a if that helps any.) I am able to perform the daily care and find some help if needed for deep litter coop clean outs, but I don’t have the physical ability to build a coop due to disability...

    New Coop- 10x16 Shed Conversion

    So after 4.5 years, I’m finally a chicken owner again! I lost all of my hens and my coop during Hurricane Harvey. I was not going to replace anything, but when the opportunity to purchase lavender Orpingtons arose, I just had to do it. So my husband and I spent the better part of this weekend...

    My coop

    I bought a cheap shed kit on sale (7 1/2' x 12') from Costco and they have names of carpenters that you can hire to assemble it. I had to buy 3 bundles of roofing shingles. The carpenter suggested I put linoleum down since chicken poop will ruin the pressed wood floor. I bought a remnant of very...

    Shed style coop...on the ground or elevated?

    My husband and I will be building our chicken coop this weekend for our 5 week old flock of 5. We will be building a walk in, shed style slant roof coop with an attached run. Similar to the picture below. My question is should a coop this style be elevated with cinder blocks or built on the...

    Work in Progress - My Chicken Coops, Shed Conversion and Duck Run

    Last spring we lived in a town that wouldn't let us put a shed on our 1 acre lot because we already had a detached garage. Chickens... forget it! So fast forward to August of the same year and in the midst of a move to a place that suited us better, we found ourselves the proud owner of some...

    First Time Chicken & Duck Mama

    Hello all, I have posted on a couple of threads and lurked around, but haven't officially said hello yet. Becoming a chick mom (or as my friends and family may call me, the crazy chicken lady) has been a long time dream for me. For the last several years I have dreamt, researched, and planned...

    Shed for a Coop??

    Anyone made a shed a coop? Looking at buying a metal shed and just turning it into the coop, it would be much more weather resistance than a built wood one! Pictures if you have converted your would be much appreciated (:

    shed coop conversion almost done

    My contractor slid in during the 36 hours we didn't have rain and converted the back of my shed into an open-air coop. He did a great job, very happy with it and him. He buried hwc one foot down and attached it to a 2x4 in the trench on both sides and the front. And he sank in a board in front...

    Change of plans...

    Oh my goodness. As you may know, I was planning to build a wooden 8’ x 8’ chicken coop this week. That plan went down the toilet :tongue Apparently, my family and I are not very skilled carpenters. The wooden monstrosity we (weakly) attempted to build was definitely not going to cut it. So... we...

    From overwhelmed to done!! ❤️

    I want to thank everyone here who helped me realize a dream of mine to have chickens. Back in March I posted that I was ready to cancel my chick order because I was so overwhelmed at how we could get a coop done. We had no skills. But many of you encouraged me and we kept the chick order and got...

    Advice/help requested - 8x8 shed to coop conversion

    I decided to bite the bullet and got my hands on an 8x8 shed to be converted into a coop. I will need all the help I can get, as I am not a builder (with the exception of canvas stretchers!) and am a total visual learner, so seeing other members builds/tutorials have been helpful! Here's the...

    Happy Dog Hill's "Happy Hen Hotel!"

    I could not be more excited to finally share our BELOVED chicken coop. When we bought our house, I knew that I wanted to add chickens to our fur/feather family. After months of planning, discussing, more planning, and finally just DOING - our coop is complete! We were lucky that our property...
