Remeber: Make their Shack Cozy

Chicken Coop Designs are everywhere on the web but few of them are essentially of prime quality or will supply you with the obligatory info for you to build a successful chicken pen in your own yard. More than regularly I have come across designs online that might really hurt your chicken and hens more than it’ll benefit them…

You can simply find free chicken pen designs online but they’re sometimes thrown together by folks who don’t know what they are doing and just need to share their own designs and plans with the world without really giving any though to the well being of the animals or without considering how simple the chicken house is to wash or how good isolation and ventilation the chicken cage has got. The bulk of chicken shack builders only consider the appearance facet of their new chicken shed they intend to build while the things you actually need to think about run alot deeper.

In this post I am going to go thru the some of the most critical considerations when selecting a group of chicken coop designs. These are all things I have been taught or learned during my eight years in poultery and I am hoping you can gain advantage from my experiences : )

- Jacks Coop -

Not all chickens are created equal, and similarly, neither are all chicken coops. When planning out your chicken coop designs, there are many things you need to take into account, such as, how many chickens will you have, what are these chickens for, are they going to be pets, what kind of accommodations will the chickens have, how will you get to the eggs? All these are extremely good questions, that must be answered immediately before you begin building your chicken coop.

The amount of chickens that you can keep is only limited by the size of your yard. You can keep five, or you can keep twenty five; however you have to build a coop that can accommodate the number of chickens you plan on having.

- Predators -

Here is an article that our friend Joshua wrote on the importance of keeping your hens safe from hens. He originally wrote it for our free eReport but I though it would be a good idea to include it here as well

In your Chicken Coop Designs, you must take predators into account. There are many predators out there that are ready to gobble your chickens up, and that is why you must go to great measures to protect your investment. Chickens may only cost a couple of dollars apiece, but it takes a long time for them to reach maturity, plus you may have become attached to them. Whatever your reasoning is, you don’t want harm to befall your precious birds, so make sure you take measures to keep them safe! Below you will find some things that you can do:

Chicken Coop Hazards

In building a chicken coop, there are many things that people do not take into account, and they’re usually things that can end up hurting their chickens in the long run. Believe it or not, there’s much more to establishing a coop than just building it and inserting your chickens, so let’s have a look at the potential dangers in your coop!

Low Ceiling: You might not consider this, but chickens are birds, and just because they do not fly well, doesn’t mean they don’t give it their best shot. Consequently, if you have a low ceiling, the chickens are likely to injure themselves when they try to fly within the coop. If it is abnormally low, there is a chance the chicken will manage to break its neck. This really is not something that you want to see when you come out to feed your chickens in the morning, so remember, if you have to duck while actually walking around in your coop, the ceiling is probably too low, that is something to think about in your Chicken Coop Designs.
