Wisdom Farms - Building Our Chicken Coop

Producing this video was an after thought. My wife was shooting some video for some friends of ours who helped us get some wood. So I took her footage and pieced it into a short video with a photo montage at the end.

Just a suggestion that worked very well for me. Put your chicken yard or run on skids. Now cut an entrance door on all sides of the coup. They love all the grass in their yard. But as they poop they will kill the grass. Just drag the yard section to another side of the coup and they will have brand new grass again. They will love it! You can do this on all four sides of the coup. Then you can collect the poop from the old area for compost. And the grass will return. Try it, you might like it.

@papakeetee Have pity on people from Boston. I have been there and believe me they hate themselves as much as they hate everyone else. What a sad way to live. Come on down to the south. People down here are loving and considerate of others. One thing I can promise you, in the south it is impossible to starve! People care.

Just a lil note.. You should raise you house about two feet off of the ground so the floos won't rott.. My two houses are 3 feet from the ground....
