The Do It Yourself Chicken House
Building chicken houses from prefab is a good idea to many. For one thing, it will definitely save time. For others though, the cheaper route is better as every cost incurred when raising chicken will always add to the cost of every head of chicken produced. Besides, there is really a definite satisfaction when you build and design your own chicken house. If the do-it-yourself chicken house is the route for you, the following will be helpful.
The Layout – The key point is that chicken houses are places of shelter. As chicken are creatures of habit, the chicken coop must be a permanent safe retreat for chickens where they can roost, nest, feed, and stay healthy safely. A chicken coop will also need a chicken run. Chicken runs are the area outside of the coop where the chicken could roam about, forage for additional nutrition, play, and have dirt baths. The chicken run will depend much on the available space or local regulations. Generally, rural area regulations are relaxed followed by urban areas with strong farming backgrounds. Whether the dirt run is free range, confined, or fenced will vary on the type of predators that are in the area.
The Design – Typically, a chicken will need about four square feet of space and three hens could share a nest. Each hen will also need a perch about 9″ long. The design should also include a hatchway, storage area, ventilation, lighting and a feeder system. For a cleaner and healthier environment, design the floor to accommodate deep litter. This is normally done by piling three to four inches of wood shavings under the floor. Most people will design or make allowances for a feeder and water container and supply system, often though it is convenient to purchase the system in a local farm supply store.
The Materials – You will need 4×4 wood for corner posts/studs and skids
• For boundary and floor joist, framing for walls and roofs you need 4×2’s.
• 2×3 will be needed for perch support and perch and a 2×2 for the nesting perch.
• Plywood will be needed in building wall cladding, flooring, cladding battens, doorstops, parts of nest boxes, roofing and litter boards, and tarpaper for under roofing.
• Hardware
• Feeder system
Tips for Building the Chicken House
Chickens have virtually no defense against predators. Due to this, the do-it-yourself chicken house must be built in such a way that even when there are boards or planks for flooring, it will still be wise to add chicken wires under the floor to discourage rodents from entering the coop as they could easily chew through the wood. Possible weak points and entry points should be wrapped with chicken wire as well.
The perimeter fence of the chicken run must be constructed in a manner that the fence goes deep into the ground (about 10″) to discourage predators from digging. The height of the fence must be about five feet in height to prevent foxes from jumping over.

Introducing new chickens to the brood isn’t very easy to do. This is the morning after when the new pullets were introduced to the brood. Because hens often are very brutal and can kill baby chicks because they weren’t incubated by a residential hen. We put the new pullets right along side the bardrock hens in a confined area.
Even adding a pullet of the same breed isn’t a sure and safe friendly even. Yesterday our hens fought almost to the death. It’s best to buy the amount of chicks that you plan on having in the future. Just because they are the same breed is no gaurantee they will co-exist happily.
