We built this brooder box mainly for poults, (7’x4’) but will definitely be using it for chicks, keets and sometimes ducklings if hatch times work out. We used 3 pcs of plywood, 8 2x4x8, and 3 1x4x8 and hardware mesh. It’s under cover so none of it is treated wood but we might stain the outside...
How do I make a chicken coop? Does anyone have any ideas how to make a simple or cheap chicken coop? I’m looking for cheap or homemade chicken coop ideas. I have 4 chickens currently I’m planning to get more in the future so if anyone has nice ideas please let me know. Thanks for reading.
In preparation for my hatching experiment I figured I’d get a head start and get working on a brooder box for when the chicks hatch. While looking online for a brooder I noticed they all are either expensive or just don’t look durable. So I figured I’d make my own!
It’s super cheap and it only...
