Or if you are brand new to this project, try asking a family member or friend with experience to offer you some guidance & a helping hand along the way to create the coop of your dreams.
Many homeowners now want their chicken coop to look attractive, so their neighbors will not only admire the possibility of being offered fresh eggs every once in awhile but also will see the “curb appeal” of a great looking coop. We’ve found you 36 different chicken coop projects to try in a variety of styles. There are even a few eco-friendly ones you can make that will repurpose items you likely have on hand, such as a baby crib or a swing set. If you do so, remember to only use items that are high quality, otherwise your chicken coop will not be successful.
Having fresh eggs as close as your backdoor has proved to be tempting for so many. Eggs are chock-filled with omega-3’s which are heart healthy and offer a lot of other benefits that help us feel great all day. Treat your chickens and hens well, with a special home that is just theirs that you’ve DIY-ed all for them. Happy DIY-ing and Crafting!
