Discover How To Easily Build An Attractive And Affordable Chicken Coop That Protects Your Chickens From Predators Maintains Their Health And Delivers More Delicious Eggs.
Building a backyard chicken coop will be one of the best investments you’ll ever make. Not only will you have a self sustained miniature-farm that produces fresh organic eggs everyday, recycles your food scraps and provides high quality fertilizer, but you’ll be proud to know that you made something with your own two hands.
Also, building your own chicken coop just makes economical sense. You can build a chicken coop at just a fraction of the cost of buying a pre-built one. Most pre-built chicken coops you buy need to be assembled anyway, you’re really just paying hugely inflated prices for the material. Unfortunately, building your own chicken coop is not as easy as hammering some wood and wire mesh together. You need to take into account materials, insulation, ventilation, lighting, positioning, nesting, perches, litter collection and protection from the elements and other animals. Fortunately for you, using my many years of experience in poultry farming, I’ve created an easy to follow guide to building your own perfect chicken coop. It doesn’t matter if your a master carpenter or a total beginner, If you require a big or small coop, or if you have a small or big budget.

This video features 54 of the most common breeds of chicken from around the world. I have kept pet chickens in a coop/run, which I made myself, in my back garden for two years. One of my hens is a Sussex and the other is a Welsummer. They both lay eggs and are more entertaining than you may imagine. I previously also owned an Orpington.

Ian from perfect poultry let us collect a few eggs to take home with us before giving us some advice on which breeds we should get.
We eventually chose a Light Sussex, which we will eat, a Black Rock, and a Calder Ranger.
He also sold us some feeding equipment.

Simeon and I went to Perfect Poultry near Guildford in Surrey to buy our chickens. We still had not decided on what breed we wanted and we hoping to get some advice when we got there.
Perfect Poultry is run by Ian Bell who was very friendly and helpful and show us the whole facility and process from fertilising the eggs right through incubating them, hatching them and then growing them.
We explained to him that we have capacity for about 3 chickens and are mainly interested in eggs but would like one bird that we could fatten for the table. We also suggested that we would like to have three different types of chicken so that they (and their eggs) are easier to tell apart. So, for eggs he recommended a Calder Ranger and a Black Rock, both of which should lay over 300 eggs in a year and for the table a Light Sussex, which will also lay eggs, around 240 per year. I am not expecting it to be the best meat I have ever tasted as I have heard that breeds that lay lots of eggs don’t make good meat as lots of the protein and stuff that would have made meat is lost to make eggs. But the Light Sussex is supposed to be relatively good for both.
