I’m moving my chickens into the garden for the Fall so they can eat plants, weeds, and bugs. I built a temporary coop for them using free pallets and materia…

Thanks for the idea. I am gonna start looking for palets.
Yeah if they only go in to sleep and lay eggs there fine and I like to talk
to u more about chickens here is my email cjbliss96@yahoo.com
My shed is about that size and there are only 7 chickens in there so there
is lots of room. I would like to get 12 more this Spring. I’m not sure if I
would go over 20 in my shed because it would be pretty packed, but like I
said, they seem to only sleep in there so you should be fine.
And I’m putting in a 10x 8 shed for the winter
That is true I have 15 hens and 1 roaster 7 hens lay green and blue eggs
the other lay brown
U can put 25 chickens in a 10×8 shed
My chickens only go inside when they sleep. I think they’ll be fine for the
short period they’re in there. The good thing with free pallets is I can
always put on an addition
7 chickens are not good to put in the that it’s 3 to 4 square feet per
chicken
cool
I was going to use straw in the temporary coop like in the other one. I
guess the only issue would be that this is more open to the elements. I
will probably just change it out often.
We have 2 acres. The house, fruit trees, and garden are on 1 acre and the
other acre is mostly wooded but also has our barn on it. Should be enough
land for me for now, but I have big plans when it comes to homesteading
(raising animals/growing food). That is going to be the future of this
channel and probably worth making a video about.
hey greg how many acres of land is your yard
Yea like mines hen scrach wooden shavings
Put some shavings on the bottom for them to lay their eggs in! Straw can
get moldy and give your hens some health issues!
Just use a light under the fertile is dark regular is light hope this helps
greg
Zo when are u going to incubate eggs its really hard to find the fertilizes
egg
And also ducks pigs if you want but pigs are kind of nasty probably not pigs
greg you should turn your garden into a small farm with goats and sheep and
maybe some cow
That’s a really good idea.
i hope its warm enough for them. if you put a bit of hay on the bottom it
will make them more comfortable and warm.
Nice
Good idea.
Make a vid when their out in the yard
Ow yes greg
