  • When you have old structures and out buildings, they need a second life and a cheap one at that. We repurpose this derelict building into the most beautiful chicken coop! Using second hand materials and some sweat it turns out beautifully. #Chickens #Chickencoop #Flannelfarms #DIY #Repurposed #REuse #Homestead #Farm #Family

    The thing about animals--and also about gardens--the chickens don't care--and neither do the garden plants--if it's hobo-y or cute. Cute's good if it doesn't cost too much in terms of time or money! I'm liking this more and more as I get older!

    Chickens are arsonists😂 I was on the floor! I want to send a wood burned sign that says Feathered Flannel Flock. Chickens can have such identity crisis, doncha know. The hooptie coop is charming. (This is what I call some of my chickens containment creations.) The plus/minus is that as I've built better, they have gotten less hysterical, but hope springs eternal. You are a great husband and dad Brian. Next year's goal, no heart surgery.

    I like your idea of a hanging coop in the shed building. I like the shutters for the door. Those railroad ties make a great base. We did have our railroad ties touching the ground rot out over the 15 years we've been here. They were used to pour concrete between them to make an entry to our barn. They are pretty much gone now. Nice siding Brian! I like the saw blade. I really like the Flannel Farm Fowl run! Those chickens do look happy! I love the rustic look of it! Thanks for this video Brian and family!

    • @FlannelFarms
      @FlannelFarms  7 місяців тому +1

      The railroad ties will probably outlast the rest of the structure lol

    Almost done with coop on 3 pallet open bottom n roost on top with neighbors shelf was in dumpster. Filling in top part pallet around. Then will put hay in top part only. A friend few miles away is gonna give us 10 plus chickens yay. Maybe 15 as they want to downsize. We learned this from your 6 pallet coop thx.

    It looks great. We are in process of building our chicken shantytown. Was given two old coops and we have a carport frame we are making for outside area. So I get it. We are using what we have also. Later plan to paint both coops so have some cohesiveness to the area.

      That one was a pile barn, and pallets were added as filler between the poles. So not as cheap but it looks pretty good 😀

    Maybe 2024 will be the year of Homestead Sales. Like a garage sale, but instead what's offered is homestead produced items that are all of course for animal consumption only..😂 kids can learn business skills from egg/chick to final sale. Plus farmers markets really take too much in fees for small homesteaders.

    Looks great! But Mrs. Flannel saying she likes “hoboey” was about as convincing as hearing an Arminian talk about how much they believe in God’s sovereignty. 😊
