    Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.

    Be cool to see an update on how this build has held up and how it looks with the roof on. Also how the low nesting boxes worked - most people put them high to avoid rats and similar, so how did that go?

  • @coolmantoole
    @coolmantoole 5 років тому +83

    Doesn't the feeder need to be where the roof is over it so that the feed does not get wet when it rains?

    • @mrrs8118
      @mrrs8118 5 років тому +108

      Although a beautiful structure, I cringed at a lot of things that are not recommended for chickens. I wondered how much research was done. Those wood chips are not absorbent and can damage chickens’ feet and lead to infections. 🙁

    • @julief1718
      @julief1718 5 років тому +49

    What kind of protection will there be for the hens ? Incase, of high winds , hail, rain, predators ? Your coop is cute however, it should have more protection from the ground to the roof. Your nesting boxes should never be left on ground. Safety reasons for your hens.

    THE DESIGN OF THE LAYING BOX IS IMPRACTICAL. YOU NEED TO WALK ON CHICKEN POOP TO FETCH EGGS. THERE ARE OTHER DESIGNS THAT WOULD ALLOW YOU TO FETCH THE EGGS WITHOUT BENDING OVER AND OR WALKING ON CHICKEN POOP. BUT OVERALL, GREAT JOB GUYS ....THANKS FOR LOVING ANIMALS!!!

    I already see problems with raccoons, snakes, and rats having easy entry. It's pretty, but not very functional.
