Man, that is really nice. It almost makes me want to build one, too. I think I would have to have like 50 birds, though because I'm pretty sure the raccoons, possums, snakes, coyotes and bobcats would suddenly want to be best friends and take one or 2 home.

I went a little overboard on our coop for the amount of chickens that we have. But if we wanted to, we could probably run about 30 chickens. LOL

Some ideas for you.....

I am fixing to build a self feeder using a lick tub, and some 3" pvc 90's. The one I have now is a bad design, and makes a mess.

I like The set up. It’s open exposed more to the environment and still covered

Well, we lost the family favorite hen, “Dolly” to my pointer a couple of months back, and I promised my kids we’d get a couple more he’s this spring. Went to SeaBreeze Hens this morning for “a couple” pullets, and came home with 7. Momma ain’t happy, but the kids are!

SeaBreeze Hens is in San Leon. Very reputable operation. The original hens we have came from there about 4 years ago.

SeaBreeze is right down the street from me. years we thought she was the crazy chicken lady till we go into chickens.

I have 6 serma chickens from her now and 4 large hens from her. She is awesome to deal with and has tons of cool birds
