Chicken Coop Designs – 5 Tips To Consider Before Building A Chicken Coop

    -    
If you’re planning to build a chicken house than the most important thing you must do is to choose a proper chicken coop plan. This is not a though decision but you must choose wisely in order to get the best of the crop.

The Size
You want your chicken to be comfortable and thus you make sure they have enough space. That’s why you need to know how many hens you’ll put in there. If the place is too crowded the hygiene will suffer and most likely your chickens will get ill and so will you.

How to minimize your work
Since you’ll have a lot of work at the chicken coop, you need to find some ways that will help you minimize the work done. For example, you could build a slanted floor in order to clean the house easier.

Since you’re not the first in this field, you could learn from the people that already have a Chicken Coop. Learn from their experience in order to avoid some nasty mistakes and minimize your work.

The Location
You must pick up a proper location for your Chicken Coop since this is probably the most important thing if you want to get the max from your hen house. If you have too little sunlight your egg production will suffer, if you have too much your chicken will suffer.

Another thing you must remember is to ensure that your coop stays clean after a heavy rain. For this you must put your Chicken Coop on top of a hill and not at his bottom.

Protection
You need to protect your chickens from wild animals and pet predators. Foxes, cats, dogs or badgers, they’re all a threat to you chickens. That’s why you need to be sure that no one will hurt your hen house. And for that, besides fences you need take all the precautions in order to prevent some predators from digging their way into the hen house.

The last thing you want is to wake up one morning and see all your chicken slain.

The Design
Even if you don’t find the design so important, trust us when we tell you that it is. You don’t want a hideous coop in your backyard, do you? This applies to your neighbours too. For this reason you must choose a chicken coop that looks pretty nice so that everyone could live with that building around. If you do this right, your neighbours will surely envy you for this awesome looking hen house.
