OMG, my original chicken coop design has same poop tray and two tier roost bar exactly like you have. After um-teen design iterations, I ended up doing the deep liter method. I think landed on the same video you mentioned to spark my interest to build a coop when I was searching for ideas. LOL. You did a wonderful job.

Great build! This is the style I've been eyeing for a while now. I like the simplicity of the lean-to roof, the covered egg access and the droppings clean out methodology. I also really want to build a coop that could be easily moved. Just setting it on leveled pavers, perhaps just putting down a couple tap-con screws into the pavers to keep the wind from lifting it, and just lag bolting the run to the coop for easy separation would make this very easy to move to a new location on the property using a utility trailer.

While moving is great, the one problem I have with that is making sure your chickens are secure. I'm going to extend the hardware cloth for my walls 2 feet deep on all sides (yeah, costly). If you move the coop, how do you make sure animals can't dig through the bottom to get to it?
@jayhemfindsyou
@jayhemfindsyou Жыл бұрын
@@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403 If you look at the other builds, a lot of people don't worry about burying the hardware cloth, instead they put large rocks (6-12" diameter rocks) lining the hardware cloth to ground contact around the entire coop/run and the animals that tend to dig under like racoons, possums and foxes can't dig with the large rocks in the way. I think it looks great that way too.

I copied the design and made my own measurements.... Realistically building things like this doesn't require the cabinet or furniture making mentality.... 1/16" or even an 1/8" off is something that would get lost in the soup or paint, liquid trim etc..... But trust me those finish guys, furniture, cabinet people have a passion for measuring to the 32nd and 64th.... But for the typical weekend warrior handyman that is really a waste of time. It's an outdoor chicken coop....

Ive been looking at a lot of these chicken coop builds and this design is really nice! Two questions, does the rain stay out even with the windows open/could the windows be installed upside down so the screens are at the top? And do you have any issues with water intrusion where the egg door is folding down? Looks like there wasn't much overhang on the topside. Great job though....really like this layout!
@jayhemfindsyou
@jayhemfindsyou Жыл бұрын
I am almost done with my build (clone of this design), and if you plan you coop layout so the nesting boxes are on the prevailing downwind side they will stay dry, even in our east coast summer storms! The door that folds up, under the upper sheet of T1-11 is not prone to leaking from wind blown rain. Nesting boxes where the access hinge up top are prone to leaking as rain pelts the side by the windows and runs down. The other benefit of the hinge down access is you don't have to hold the access hatch up as you gather the eggs and no danger of it dropping on your head or fingers.

@@mikebrummy The original designer sells the plans. I wanted mine to be larger, 6' x 8' so I basically designed it in AutoCAD (I'm a civil engineer by day) from the video, using it as a basis for the design. From there I was able to put together my materials list. I really like the efficiency of this design especially with the run with a lean-to roof in the opposite direction as the main roof. I also added linoleum as a single sheet to cover the main floor and 3" up the walls to make it easier to clean in the event you have to get a mop in there for stuck on poop!

Really enjoyed this and it turned out SO nice!!! I like your idea of the metal roof. Do you need to apply silicon or anything where the screws go through the metal roof to keep it from leaking? Thanks for making this video. I'm sure you have the best looking chicken coop around!

The screws have a rubber washer on them that seals them up 👍

@@MWAWoodworks Thanks so much for answering my question about the screws. BTW, I got your plans for the router coping sleds a while back and made one. It turned out great and your plans were excellent!

I enjoyed watching this and Chris’s build so much I built this same coop for my 8 chickens with a ton of help from my father in law! One thing I was uncertain of is how to fasten the roof to the coop? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

You should have the ability to screw the roof to the coop from inside the coop!

The cartoon your (i'm) thinking of isn't a cartoon. It's a Movie. Monster House. I was thinking about it after you cut out the windows before you even said it🤣 But Chuck was probably more accurate with Futurama/Gumball. I haven't seen those. Great Coop. 🐓Love it🥚

So are there supposed to be plans or something to follow? Curious to know how long to cut the 2x4s, etc.
