Default Chicken Ranch with pics!
If anyone remembers my chicken rancher story, well here is the finished product. My buddy Mike helped me build the chicken coop and it got moved into its final place today. My wife and I painted it on the trailer and I ran the wire on it yesterday. I'm sure the chickens love it!!! How my wife conned me into the whole deal I'll never know.

Do you let them out?

Looks a bit cramped.

Get ready for fleas!! Also if you ever move the coop don't plan on planting anything there for a couple of eons.

We just got them moved into it today. We will let them out to roam. They are still not fully grown, but for just 6 chickens, it is actually pretty roomy. It's 4'wide by 8' long by 6' high. Plenty of room in the roosting box for them too. Sorry to the folks that were thinking whorehouse!!!!

Are the chickens for frying or laying?

Doesn't look like there's enough room to shovel the chickenshit.

I refuse to let my chickens see how great life is in the USA!



We just let ours run around outside on their own, they roost at night behind the house.

The little roosters are starting to get aggressive, so it wont be long until we have to deal with them special.
