[SJRANCH2]

Good job! chickens should be happy !!!!

[ImitatorBoyz]

Where did you get the plans for the chicken ark?

[SuperSallyjean]

If you live in the area of Portland, OR or Seattle WA, why not just order one from us? at: the chicken tractor company dot com We deliver! Check us out! We are all about green living and love to promote it by having the tractors available for those who do not have the time to build them.

[Unseen1PA]

Really doesnt look like it would last too long.

[Monchachay1]

you can use a bigger and stronger material to build a forever one,

[BrockRhodes]

"giving it a go"-doing it is what matters, not whether you did it perfect the first time or if it is what someone else preferred to do. if any successful designer set out to create perfection the first time, nothing would have happened. good job.

[Michael7477]

Did you grow the wood yourself or did you go to a corporation to buy it?

[sallyos06460]

LOL! He moves really fast too. Amazing!

[LazyBastaleo]

fucken pretty good alright just need to brace the 2 opposite ends at 45degree top faceing left on the right hand side and top facing right on the left  hand side thats my oppinion good to watch clip i didnt even blink

[erngre]

1 sheet of plywood and a screw gun would have done that in a few moments. What were you building the space station?

Or a green peace of shit.

Look The earth is OK it is the people that tell you that your all fucked up, that are all fucked up.

Listen to no one and live a good life. Fuck the idiots that wish to rule you.

Through invro manic insanity.

Learn the truth.

Live the life of free people. Not puppets. WAKE UP WORLD. You are being used.

So those that have power can tax your breath..

[LionGoddess1]

that whole area should be the coop.. that thing is tiny what do u think ur bringing up? parakeets?

[bentlybud]

because that would a huge load of money me and my dad we made a big chicken house and it cost us over 400$

[SheltyWells]

I like the music on this video but can't find who its from. Can you help/

[taraff1]

I have built several chicken coops, and found the best plans to be the ones at:

[icerider606]

i have a question i have a parakeet breeder cage and my uncle gave me a chick the chick is healthy and it was one of his biggest chicks he had is this this a good thing to do until it is to big for the cage and stays around my house the cage has containers filled with water and food will it have a warmth problem there are also perches in the cage and its a somewhat big cage

[JiggleSmax]

I'm not sure if this applies to you, but I want to raise chickens and I'm trying to convince my parents. One reason my mom doesn't want them is because she thinks that they'll all freeze in winter. (we have cold winters). How do you keep you're coop warm? Is electricity necessary?

[HighHeadJim]

most people just use a light bulb. If you keep them inside a coop with a light, they should be okay!

[JiggleSmax]

hey, thanks =]

[MetaKittie]

More bedding and add a heating lamp. They sell them for reptiles nice and cheap, get a 100 watt.

[Singer221fan]

I went to your blog... but your last one was in 07. What happened? BTW: I LOVED the first egg vid. Not only was it humorous, and brought back memories of my first egg... but it's the first time I've ever seen egg cups in use! So, you're telling me the whites get done, but the yolk is runny?!?! OMG I need them! (you know, eating boiled eggs on plates is either too slippery or just plain messy!)

POST MORE!

[GivingItAGo]

Yes the blog has been some what abandoned but it will soon be revamped and brought/kept up to date.

[lostmangos]

Hey there your videos are very inspiring,If u have a spare few moments what would be the best and easiest vegetables for me to attempt to grow next year , as i want to try and be more green (ive already got ducks :)

[Praxxus55712]

Tomatoes, green beans and corn are the easiest from what I've seen. Your ducks will love nibbling on the corn cobs after you eat the corn. I had ducks for awhile and they loved the cobs. :)

[Eidelmania]

I've had good results with zucchini, eggplant, squashes, tomato's of course, and lettuce, also chard and most leafy greens for that matter are very easy to grow. Nastursums are also a good addition if you like edible flowers, they take no care, and they look beautiful.

[montpellierelder]

Fun. but I loved the song. Who is it?

[thecitychicken]

Been there, done that! Just never took an awesome video of it! Good job.

[filipemedeiros]

Awesome... REAL AWESOME!!!

Real cool what you guys are doing and real great music choice!

Def. subscribing.

[TheConnorBerge]

Pretty cool. :)

[Atriples]

The chicken coop will, I hope, give you the most satisfation. If succesful the chickes should provide you with quite a bit of food. Lets hope they're not too noisy.

[cccjohnnycashfan]

omg your fast!!!!!!!!! that was so fast your like flash!! lol

[alexanderthatcher]

Look good guys, only a few chickens then? should be an odd number, min of three as chickens are communal animals oh and you'll need some round sticks for them to roost on. Wood shavings in the bottom would be good for them to scratch in and easy for you to clean.

[GivingItAGo]

I have a rounded stick in there at the moment, you can just see it in the video running between the two nest boxes. They are not using it though. I think it is too close to the side wall so they don't have enough room to get comfy on it. I plan to move it more into the middle.

[nairnite]

can you get in to collect the eggs?

[GivingItAGo]

It has two little doors on one side which give access to the nesting boxes for egg collection. That whole side also comes off for cleaning it out. There will be more info on the design in the next video.

[A2GVB]

Your runners a re doing well

[GivingItAGo]

Thaks we must do an update video on them and the other things in the garden.

[cooksterz]

Wow - youre amazing! Hope to see those chickens enjoyin it... :D

[MichaelBramble]

Your housemates should be helping you! haha

[Moona1966]

The coop looks great! But how will the chickens get into it? Will you be building them a ramp?

[GivingItAGo]

Yes they have a ramp with steps on. At first it did not have many steps and they did not like going on it as they slipped, so I added some more about 1.5 inches apart and now they are more comfortable using it. Check the picks on the blog.

[Moona1966]

I will, thanx! :)
