You can put the coop up to the fence and cut a hole where the chickens go in and out. This way they can enjoy the fenced area and their coop.

We have chickens, too! I researched a ton before we ended up buying an Amish built coop. There's three things, that after 6 years of having chickens, that I value everyday!! One is the feeder like you have, our holds a 50 lb bag of food..yay! Second is the vinyl on the wood floor. Makes cleaning the coop super easy! Third, is a poop hammock! All it is, is a tarp that to hook underneath the roosting bar..at night it catches all the dropping! It's a life changer! I have two tarps..one that I take out..dump the droppings and then I put in the second one..and throw the dirty one over our fence, spray off to clean, and leave to dry in the sun! Trust me..this has saved me a ton of work!! Hope it helps you!

I would have never thought of that!! 2. The poop hammock is a million dollar idea!! You need to make a prototype of them and patent that!! I am so serious!! It’s like sheets for our bed take one set off to wash and put another set on. But the “poop hammock” is the perfect name for it and I can see a commercial on tv (or on Amazon) selling them. I’m still just amazed by these idea’s!! Maybe the vinyl floor could go together with the hammock as a set. 😮 Please go see a lawyer about this!! 😮😊

Lol for real! I was throwing up 24/7 for 8 months. I think that’s a big reason why I stopped at 1, there’s no way I could actively take care of my current child while I grew another lol I was useless almost my entire pregnancy. I love seeing her relax though. I work from home but when my son was in middle school we lived too close for the bus route so he was a walker. Sure he could walk, but I enjoyed planning my breaks around his dismissal bc it gave me a reason to step away from my desk. I always brought a book and arrived a little early so I could park in line, unroll my windows to get some nice fresh air, and I could enjoy my book uninterrupted for a good 15-20 min. I loved waiting in the pickup line, it was like my little oasis haha I think it’s important to take those little breaks for yourself anytime you can. Not everyone can afford trips to the spa or meditation retreats, but self care isn’t all of that. My 15 min reading in my car was my retreat. And I’d even say mine was better bc I did it often, I made sure to give myself that break every day Monday thru Friday, these people spending thousands at the spa or retreats once a month or year aren’t getting that peace everyday. Heck, sometimes it’s just an extra 5 min in the shower away from everyone else. As long as we are aware we need that time to unwind and just be, we don’t need to be productive every min of every day. I’m excited to see Becky as a mom. I love how productive she is, but she’s also realistic and not a lot of youtubers are both. I love that she reminds viewers we only see a small glimpse of her day, she isn’t going to film the days she’s laying in bed bc that’s boring to watch, but she does it just like everyone else haha. I hope the baby gives her more reasons to slow down and just cuddle, relax, enjoy those memories of just sitting and reading with baby. I’m sure there will be plenty of times she’ll wear the baby and get her chores done bc the chores don’t go away, I’m just excited to see her new balance. A new side to such an amazing family. I’m so excited for their journey to continue.

Consider making a combination Greenhouse/Chicken Coop... set it up so that the chickens can overwinter inside the greenhouse, which they can clean and fertilize any raised beds you might have inside during that time, and then, during the growing seasons, you'll have a section set aside for them to roost at night.

If you’re gonna be building a stationary coop, you might wanna look into the “deep bedding” method (I thing that’s what it was called). Basically, you put a pretty thick layer of wood shavings on the floor - the chickens dig in it and the dropping’s get mixed in - you only have to clean it 1 or 2 times a year and you have the contents ready to use as compost!

I loved my chickens…so peaceful to watch..☺️.. When we built our coop, we purchased an outdoor shed from Lowes and then modified it by adding windows and splitting a third of the coop for entry and storage. The rest was nesting boxes and an in and out door for the girls and our rooster, when we had one. We added an auto open/ close door for the chickens. It was light sensitive and would open at dawn and close at dusk. We also plumbed the coop with water and electricity. We painted the flooring with an exterior primer from Sherwin Williams. It made a HUGE difference in protecting the floor from their bodily functions. The primer sealed the wood floor and we had zero problems with rot. We also sprayed the interior with exterior paint. It smoothed down the wood surface and made cleaning the coop a breeze. It’s a step well worth taking.

Then there’s some sort of race track style tunnel for the egg to go from window to kitchen lol. Obviously I have no idea what any of these gadgets are, how they work or even where to begin but I sure saw the whole Wallace and gromit scene play out in my head lol and my vision was all in clay too lol it wasn’t realistic at all. There were also some broken eggs splattered along the path from the many failed attempts haha. I miss watching Wallace and gromit, they were my go to movies when I was sick.

Beautiful property. We have chickens, and used to free range until hawks got 3, foxes got 5 and raccoons got 4 ducks. Be careful where you are- you will have predators, unfortunately. And once they find your chickens, they will never leave, until the chickens are gone or they're locked up. It's hard. Our chickens LOVED free ranging.

Hi Becky, ur energy is incredible even with child. You can see how proud Josh is of house and all. He is really representing no letting you carry and get stress. His initiative is ample and pride just flows. It is very nice to see. I can not wait to see the little one chasing chickens. Be well, rest and let awesome Josh represent - while u nurse the little one to term.

I 100% agree about the chickens. I would never be without them. They bring so much joy and food security.

Becky, a total game changer in keeping the coop clean is sand! Putting sand on the coop floor allows you to just use a kitty litter scoop and sift out the poop easily and add to your compost pile!

My Daughter added spent coffee grounds,(treated for safety) the smell is awesome & they last for months, kitty litter scoop works or a mud scoop, (shovel with hole’s)

Becky check out Carolina Coops video on one of their large walk in coops. The video I watched posted on KZfaq on July 2nd, 2020. Their coops are way out of my price range, but they really focus on the chickens well being, and I was able to get learn some useful tips from them, even though I've had chickens for 15 years. You might want to add a rain gutter to the end of the chicken coop. The way it's slanted, it looks like it might send rain towards where you collect eggs. BTW, I was so impressed with you getting 5 girls in by yourself! 😁

SO BEAUTIFUL!!! Definitely some of the most beautiful coops I've seen. Wish I was a builder.

I think you are correct in your assumption that your rogue hen flew out off the coop and could not get back in. Where we live in Northern California, we have to have chicken wire over the top of the run because of all the predators. Leave the door pen with food and water. You will have to come down in the late evening to get her if she decides to roost back in the coop. Good luck, honey.

Would you be able to bring us along with the planning of the garden, green house and coup? It's daunting to me to hire and make big changes like that, seeing you do it would be so informational!

Becky, idea for the new coop, in my coop the entire side opens so you can rake out the bedding really easily (it’s also on tallish legs, so you don’t need to bend over either).

I noticed when you moved the coop under the deck that the upper roof wasn't entirely under. I wonder if it would be a good idea to add a gutter for now to redirect the water. LOVE your channel!!!
