From THE OWNER BUILDER NETWORK:One of my cousins posted this on FB. Thought they were all pretty nifty :)Raising chickens has a lot of benefits. The most obvious is the fact that you get free eggs that are much healthier than “store bought”. And if you’re after the meat, you can be certain that what you serve to your family is fresh and safe. Chickens also make great pets PVC Chicken Feeder – Backyard ChickensBut first you need to build a chicken coop that will serve as their home. This is where they will lay their eggs. It will keep them protected from the weather. And it will keep them safe from predators. A chicken coop will also protect your yard, especially your garden from your chickens, as they’ll happily feast on your produce.Building your own chicken coop is better than buying one that’s already fabricated. Most coops sold in the market are expensive. You might come across cheap ones but that’s usually because the quality has been sacrificed. Building your own is much cheaper as you have control of the materials, and you can be assured of the quality.It also allows you to personalize and achieve the style you desire. Another important aspect is that you can customize the size. Instead of fitting your yard around your store bought coop, the coop can be tailored to suit your yard. Of course, the size will also depend on the number of chickens you’re planning to raise.Thinking of raising chickens? Build a chicken coop!Click on any image to start the lightbox display.
