    This is our largest chicken coop to date. The run size is 24'x34' with a henhouse/shed that is 10'x18'. It was built on location in Santa Fe, NM over 45 days. Virtually all the materials were purchased locally in Santa Fe.
    The large chicken coop has many features of our Craftsman Coop such as pull out storage drawers and feeder hoppers, plus new features, such as two separate henhouses with communication doors, loft storage in addition to extra storage underneath the henhouse.
    The run is also divided and has an area just for roosters if necessary.
    The build was challenging because of the sheer size of the coop and many of the details involved aren't visible in the finished product. The customer will not be able to free range their flock, so size and the ability to create a healthy environment for the chicken was critical.

    I'm a contractor and i can understand that this was a massive job to say the least. The attention to detail and the craftsmanship for a chicken coop is next to none. The hen house looks like furniture. The door gaps are beautiful and I even noticed you caulked all the board and bantam. That 1/2" wire is pulled tight! It looks like you guys painted this entire structure by hand but i hope you sprayed it and back rolled it .. so much paint and cutting in. In regards to storm shields .. the customer should've incorporated some kind of roll up/ down steel doors tucked into the outer eve's on the long sides and maybe something inside on the ends. I hope they run some water misters out there to keep the dust down and the chick cool. Anyway, you guys never seize to amaze. 46 days to do this is pretty dang quick. Awesome job guys!

    One idea is to section off parts to grow fresh grass. Rotate them
    So they have fresh greens & allow the insects&’worms to lay eggs & hatch. The chickens will love it!

    • @jesseehlers7598
      @jesseehlers7598 Рік тому +1

      Or you could make fodder boxes using the 1/2" mesh on top, could even make it a wiking system so you put water in once a week or something. That way it less work for you and the chickens won't kill off the grass as long as the box is high enough so they can't pull the hole grass sprout out and you don't need to use grass either barley, wheat what ever. Best part won't need to rotate.

    I like that there's separate rooms. Sometimes part of the flock doesn't get along with each other. And we have sentimental senior citizen chickens that can benefit from being near, but safely separate the rest of the flock.

    • @CarolinaCoopsVideos
      @CarolinaCoopsVideos  2 роки тому +6

    So , my question is you only have six feeding portals so will the chickens line up and wait their turn to eat or what??
    Because from what I have seen it can be an eating frenzy when chickens get hungry .....
    Just trying to understand so few feeders for a lot more chickens !
    The coop is absolutely beautiful.....

    I love it, I think it is beautiful and very functional. I actually like the idea of combining two coops into one, not only so that you can have more birds and more room for them to be able to move around, but also so that you can have hens and roosters. I love the separated rooms in the front so that you can have more than one rooster and be able to separate them if needed. I don't know a lot about raising chickens and turkeys yet, but it is something that I would do, and I would also have a large coop with the addition of being able to have a water catchment system. Thank you so much for sharing all of your coop designs with all of us, I just love watching your tours and hearing your explanations of all the components and why they are necessary. Blessings to you always, and may you and your team always have good health, always be safe, and may you all have prosperity in all that you endeavor to do in life. God Bless ~SuzyJC_05.12.2022~

    Dam it man ,,, NOW that's a chicken COOP ! must lay golden eggs , and a time out room for the roosters , all those chickens need is a water fall and a martini bar , loved the space to store stuff in the run area , good idea
