It’s called diatomaceous earth, not ‘dicotamus’
netting predator proof? NOT
bull crap it does to suck
The city I live in doesn’t allow chickens. I’m moving. Thanks for the vid.
I loved it.
I’d be surprised if a raccoon or possum has not yet killed your birds one
night with no real wire (hardware cloth) or sturdy door. It’s also too
small.
Chickens like grass and dandelions and other weeds. It will orange up their
egg yolks: )
very cool!
I love this chicken coop…I want one! Good job Scott, and thanks for
filming it, Steph
Doesn’t suck or stink…….hmmmm….are you referring to the coop?
I , too, have backyard chickens that I enjoy very much. I really like your
door system, and you are very creative. You will learn as you go, too. I
sure have !It’s not rocket science, ignore the haters. Carry on !!!
you see, if i close the door here its got a very good camouflage look so it
looks very much like a shed nice… except for that other little part there
with the chicken lol
Sorry to be negative, but that is about the most horrible setup for
chickens that I’ve seen in some time. Not enough space, light or air and
all the components of the coop are inconvenient for use. Using DE will not
help compost your litter..it actually kills all the bugs that can help you
in that endeavor. As you gain experience and chicken knowledge, you will
look back at this first coop and chuckle…but let’s hope that is soon!
Cheers!
I also love the idea! Could I have the wiring diagram?
@dolly2397 Then i pour heineken in for them to drink!
I love the car power antenna idea. WOW. do you think I could have the
wiring diagram? I’d love to make one of my own. Thanks, Fred
