Thank you guys for supporting and watching the video! A few things! 1) the roof has more support then what is seen in this video 2) I did use okay sand but since it has been switched to construction sand for the dust bath areas 3) used chicken wire because this isn’t their main protection just to keep the chickens inside it during the winter Thanks again you guys are the best🐥😁

This is perfect. We have fallen tree limbs and spare tires we need to use up, and this run is perfect for what we want to provide for our chickens. Thanks a bunch.
Very cool. The only problem I see is rats learning of the compost and they easily squeeze thru 1" chicken wire. I made a mistake not using hardware cloth and have a problem with rats....they come at dusk and dawn to clean up the mess under auto feeders.
Yeah i thought that you’d be better off putting things chickens couldn’t eat in that mesh circle as they’d be better off eating the greens rather than just the bugs
I can't wait to watch this video! We sort of have the same set up for our chickens as well. Your chickens will love it because they will be jump in the branches and swing and have so much fun 😅
D.E. Is great for chickens I add burned out ash from the barbeque with it and sand. My chickens love it and it keeps the parasites at bay. LOVE the play ground.
This is GREAT inspiration for upgrades to our coop here in NC. The snow was so heavy it bowed the 2x4s holding up our wire roof. We found out a lot that first Winter. I love your tree limb ideas as it will help keep them busy and a way to keep fights to a minimum. Im definately copying the tree limbs. Our coop is covered in greenhouse plastic with rollup side flaps for summer. We have 5 hens and a roo. Lets keep em happy! Robin in NC USA 2024
This is absolutely amazing! The chicken coop run and playground are like a dream come true for your flock! I love the creativity and attention to detail in building a space where the chickens can not only stay safe but also have fun. You’ve clearly put a lot of care and effort into making this both practical and enjoyable for your chickens. Truly inspiring and a joy to watch!
I am so inspired. I just built my outdoor run for my free rangers to have a snow-free area over the winter. Now I am going to add toys and all the things.
8:19 I loved this scene “so I open it, and then I dump it,” then the chickens are like,”you’re just taunting us now.” 8:49 we tried the tire-dustbath but…. I will warn you we got mice in there so check the rim. Your channel is very inspirational, Good job you guys!
Nice job! Mine love their swing, but I did make a small one when they were chicks, so they've grown up swinging, and they still use their big girl swing. I hope your girls like theirs soon.
Great ideas... I'm curious, what did you use to hold the roof panels on? Thanks for posting. 🎉 I also wanted to mention that the large flat oil pans sold at Lowe's and Home Depot make great containers for sand bathing.
The roof as you have it in this video will not hold up very long with snow on it. The rain will run off but snow won't just slide off...unless you spray it down with olive oil before each snow fall or a snow storm also you can heat up the bottom of the clear roof with rope lights or something. First thing that needs to be done is turn all of the roof's 2×4s a quarter turn so they are not so saggy...and put a couple more 4×4s vertically to support the roof.
Great job. I sweep my roof off if a heavy snow comes. I'm out there doing their water and food so its no big issue. Glad you added more support. Snow gets heavy. Happy chickens!!!
I like it, I was thinking about enlarging our chicken run, now thanx to you I have a better idea of what I will be doing. I love your channel, keep up the great job.
I did the tire thing with sand and DE and my girls do use it. I have seen clouds of sand getting kicked up and seen my girls running around with sand on their feathers. I like the branch roosts, probably will make some of those.
@@AcresOfAdventure Just curious on the question of rodents. Last night I saw three mice in the run at bedtime, two inside the run and one outside, and have started setting mousetraps at night and picking them up in the morning before I let the girls out into the run. I remove food bowls every night for cleaning but the girls do scatter food some and although I sweep at night I know there are crumbs left behind. Curious how other chicken Moms deal with pests.
I like your ideas & recently built a run similar to this. I want to add the tree limb perches & a swing for my hennies & roos. ❤️🐓 Peace, Love & Chickens!
Fantastic work, man! I didn’t think about putting metal on the bottom to protect from wind. I hope that I soon will have the courage to build a nice run like this! I’ll be watching your rain system video soon. It’s awesome how this all works as a system, with proper planning (re-purposing fallen trees, using old bedding as compost, etc). This style of run looks so simple yet I fear failing at creating a similar design. I really need to get over that fear along with the fear of other things as a new/first-time homeowner. Right now, I feel like my skill level is basically just enough to make a hoop coop lol. Just have to embrace the learning experience! The compost food tower is another great idea and I really like the dust baths. My backyard is almost all dirt/rocks, so I’m researching which bedding would be best. The mulch seems like it’s working well with you! Very cool how the chickens can go under the coop. Great job and for what it’s worth, I really appreciate seeing a good dad. That’s awesome. I can tell you’re a great dad. PS I did just level out some ground and put in 2 raised garden beds! Can’t wait to give those a shot.
Fantastic! So much getting things accomplished is getting past doubt and just starting...once you do you'll be so proud of your accomplishments and see you can do a lot more than you thought you could.@@DontDoDaylight
I love this video! Thank you for sharing. I want to make something like this for my chickens. I love how you care for your chickens! The tire dust bath is great! Have you seen them us it yet?
What a nice run. I have 100' of electric (but never turned on) fencing around my run, and also put up a bunch of large tree limbs like you did. They love the limbs and used them all the time. Finally, at the end of the vid you started looking at the lens. Appreciate it when TYers do that. Makes me feel like you're actually talking to me.🙂 My coop has a tin roof, but was planning on replacing it with that stuff like you used.
This is a lovely scratching area for the chicks. Their house is so cosy. The trees are brilliant for them to see out and have some exercise. Are the wire holes around the compost a bit small for their beaks i wonder. Overall you built a lovely place fot your chickens. One thing only..if they are used to their foraging in the yard they will miss that so much. Thanks for sharing..great ideas here for everyone❤
Prediction #1: They will dust bathe under the coop where it is dry and not in the tires. Ditch the tires. Replace the tires with a log. In evenings if it’s not cold dampen the log and surrounding area. During the night his will attract grubs and bugs. In the morning the chickens will have breakfast. Prediction #2: They will enjoy the new roosts. Every week or so change the location of at least one. They will appreciate the variety. #3: I’ve had a hen who enjoyed the swing, but the vast majority do not use it. Chicken wire: You know what’s best, so just do it. As you yourself mentioned, chicken wire keeps chickens in, but doesn’t keep predators out. The metal at the lower level will keep out some predators, as well as the wind. Should a predator gain access the chickens will be more vulnerable since they’ll be trapped in an enclosed environment. While the weather is warm enough for them to free range, do your flock a solid and put hardware cloth on top of the chicken wire. You won’t regret it. Diatomaceous Earth, as you mentioned, is perfectly safe in the open air, so long as it’s food grade. When I apply DE in the run I do wear a face mask, preferably KN95, because my face is so close to the dust. Also I mix it with dirt in the run (not the enclosed coop) at dusk when my chickens are in the coop. Best wishes.
I love this. I was trying to find a video that I didn’t have to dig holes in my yard but have a run for my chickens so thanks for posting your idea. I think I’m going to follow it as much as I can
we have previously used black rubber bowls that freeze slower however we have stopped using them because of lead. Honestly making a couple trips out there a day is sometimes the best we can do. Our chickens have access to the snow so they can consume that if they really need something.
Good job! This is simular to what I have been planing on building 🙂 One adjustment I would make is adding some more rungs to their ladder. I noticed the spacing seems to be hard for them to walk on. But it is very cool👍🏻
I just found this video. Great ideas in here. Now next weekend I will be able to do one since I have most the materials! Thanks for the natural perch ideas. Also thinking on building a bit bigger and have other small birds in it. Maybe some quail.
Thank you brother for sharing nice practical and wonderful video, you are so creative and love the way you make things easy for us to understand, stay blessed and keep sharing nice videos, love to hear your rooster crowing 🐓
Good to see you're putting the needs of the chickens first over the needs of humans. Unlike those dreadful Eglu houses which haven't thought of how it is to be a chicken. Chickens can't stand on something the thickness of a pencil like their ladder rungs and perches and they can't perch comfortably when the roof is on their heads. Your house and run is great. Thankyou.
I think your comost idea is a good one, but I think chicken wire would give them more access to the food scraps instead of hardware cloth! It is kind of like a tease when the good stuff is in the middle! You might find a chicken inside the bin one day! LOL! Love the natural perches!
Or…make it bigger and shallower so they CAN get in it and they will make you some fertile compost. And have the time of their lives doing it. Look up chicken tractor on steroids here on UA-cam to see what I mean.
Great video thank you! and for anyone living on the coast, Roofing held by 1X4s is going to turn into a kite landing on your neighbors roof. So, build accordingly!
Your swing isn't wide enough. they can actually swing on it if it is a little wider. You might want to switch it out. Nice outside run pen for them. I especially like all the branches.
Thank you guys for supporting and watching the video!
A few things!
1) the roof has more support then what is seen in this video

So nice to finaply see someone else using natural branches and giving them perches to jump around on!
I am not sure if that roof can hold any amonth of snow
He def should add a couple 4x4 support beams.
Or wind.
Doesn’t snow much in San Diego.
@@justinraburn4232 Well that makes sense...
@@justinraburn4232he’s in Michigan…
This is awesome! Any chicken would be proud to have a playground like that. Gave me some ideas too.
I hope they will enjoy the winter in there!
I can’t imagine that roof holding a Michigan snow fall
It adds more fun for the chickens, they get to see an avalanche 😆
I think you need to reinforce your roof if you're expecting a lot of snow. Gr8 job on the build out of the coop
Thank you! I have added more support for the roof!
What support did you use?
Ah oui, ça ne semble pas très solide et il n'y a pas assez de pente pour que la neige glisse facilement
Yes definitely if he isn't a snow region the snow gets so heavy here where I live I had to put a 2 by 4 and metal roof on my Coupe
It will crush with first snow.
I love how you put so many things in there for them to do. I need to get creative and do that to our rooster’s run.
Awesome job! I love it! 🙂🐓
Thank you! 😊
Very cool. The only problem I see is rats learning of the compost and they easily squeeze thru 1" chicken wire. I made a mistake not using hardware cloth and have a problem with rats....they come at dusk and dawn to clean up the mess under auto feeders.

Thank you for giving us some ideas! You have a really nice set up for your chickens.
Looks Great. May want to do more re=enforcement on the roof. A good snow will make it crash down.
Yes! I have added more support plus a few beams inside to hold it up!
I love the chicken "cat tree"! And the ladder. Looks nice enough to let the inlaws stay in!
Love that you keep it all so natural and s re-purpose a lot! They are happy chickens indeed 🐓💫
Wher are you from?

Hopefully ours will too
The wind is gonna blow that roof off or the snow is gonna cave it in. Probz wind before the snow gets it.
Great job. I sweep my roof off if a heavy snow comes. I'm out there doing their water and food so its no big issue. Glad you added more support. Snow gets heavy. Happy chickens!!!
Beautiful ❤ your chickens looks healthy...love the coop
Well, whatever you are doing, the chicken will feel amazing.👍👏
I've made a big roosting ladder with branches. I leaned it against their coop and the chicks love it!
Love all the use of natural elements! Thank you for sharing!
Happy Chickens Happy Life. I am sure those chickens R loven that new build. GREAT job! Thanks 4 sharing! Cheers ! 😎😎
You could raise that swing to use it to hang heads of lettuce etc for them to reach up and peck at.
This is so darling! Thank you for sharing.
Good luck with that roof when a heavy heavy snowfall is on it. Good video, thanks.
I have a 2x4 as a swing and my guys love it. Throw a little peat moss in the dust baths.
Overall you done good, happy girls
Peat moss is a great idea!
Love it, great run! Looks like you might have to support the roof more for the snow 🤗
Absolutely brilliant! You've given us lots of inspiration for when we move and have chickens :)
The roof of the coup does not seem strong enough to hold more than a dusting of snow. Otherwise, your new coup looks interesting.
You are my kind of chicken owner nice place
Wher are you from?
Muy hermosa casita de gallinas 😍👍🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔 hermoso gallinero
Chickens are great. Always looking for a way to improve their homestead+
Thank you Paula!
Did you notice the chickens are only using the sides of coop ladder instead of the ladder steps.
Love the coop run
Yes lol I will use just one stick now because they could care less about steps 😆😆
Love it!!! Thank You I’m putting up my run tomorrow & I love all the affordable great ideas 🐥
Hope you can use some!
I like it, I was thinking about enlarging our chicken run, now thanx to you I have a better idea of what I will be doing. I love your channel, keep up the great job.

Just do it. MAke a list, buy the 2x4s etc, and start laying it out. Walk thru the fear, its quite the reward if you do!

kool!! we need this! we have 18 chickens.
How that sparse framing is holding itself is epic!

They have been in it just a few times but they have a lot of spots to do it in their free range area
I'm getting ready to build a chicken coop, and I will definitely be using some of your ideas. I love what you've done!
What a nice run. I have 100' of electric (but never turned on) fencing around my run, and also put up a bunch of large tree limbs like you did. They love the limbs and used them all the time. Finally, at the end of the vid you started looking at the lens. Appreciate it when TYers do that. Makes me feel like you're actually talking to me.🙂 My coop has a tin roof, but was planning on replacing it with that stuff like you used.
This is a lovely scratching area for the chicks. Their house is so cosy. The trees are brilliant for them to see out and have some exercise. Are the wire holes around the compost a bit small for their beaks i wonder. Overall you built a lovely place fot your chickens. One thing only..if they are used to their foraging in the yard they will miss that so much. Thanks for sharing..great ideas here for everyone❤
Prediction #1: They will dust bathe under the coop where it is dry and not in the tires. Ditch the tires. Replace the tires with a log. In evenings if it’s not cold dampen the log and surrounding area. During the night his will attract grubs and bugs. In the morning the chickens will have breakfast.
Prediction #2: They will enjoy the new roosts. Every week or so change the location of at least one. They will appreciate the variety.
#3: I’ve had a hen who enjoyed the swing, but the vast majority do not use it.
Chicken wire: You know what’s best, so just do it. As you yourself mentioned, chicken wire keeps chickens in, but doesn’t keep predators out. The metal at the lower level will keep out some predators, as well as the wind. Should a predator gain access the chickens will be more vulnerable since they’ll be trapped in an enclosed environment. While the weather is warm enough for them to free range, do your flock a solid and put hardware cloth on top of the chicken wire. You won’t regret it.
Diatomaceous Earth, as you mentioned, is perfectly safe in the open air, so long as it’s food grade. When I apply DE in the run I do wear a face mask, preferably KN95, because my face is so close to the dust. Also I mix it with dirt in the run (not the enclosed coop) at dusk when my chickens are in the coop.
Best wishes.
Yeah I was thinking about that for the dust bath spots!
Awesome!
Glad you think so!
I painted my hardware cloth black and it really does make it look look invisible and easier to see my chickens.
That’s a cool idea!
I love this. I was trying to find a video that I didn’t have to dig holes in my yard but have a run for my chickens so thanks for posting your idea. I think I’m going to follow it as much as I can
HOW DO YOU KEEP THE WATER FOR THE CHICKENS FROM FREEZING IN THE WINTER 🤔 I HAD THIS PROBLEM WHEN I HAD CHICKENS .
LOVE YOUR SETUP 👍🏾😇
we have previously used black rubber bowls that freeze slower however we have stopped using them because of lead. Honestly making a couple trips out there a day is sometimes the best we can do. Our chickens have access to the snow so they can consume that if they really need something.
I like the idea of the coop because I didn't know how I wanted to build the coop
Love this❤ Amazing stuffs for them.😊🐓🐔Happy chickens
Thank you so much!😁

Love your ideas and enthusiasm!
This is fantastic! May I ask, what screws did you use to affix the tree limbs to the treated posts? We're having a helluva time with that
WOW!!! Love it!!!!!
It’s beautiful😍 nice job. They’ll love it🥰

Your swing isn't wide enough. they can actually swing on it if it is a little wider. You might want to switch it out. Nice outside run pen for them. I especially like all the branches.
