Really looking good Ethan. You are correct in stating that you should build it correctly to start with. This will last you a lifetime. Thanks for taking us along. Take care. Fred.
The extra time spent and material cost will be recovered in durability !!! Shelly ought to be pleased with the results once the chicken endeavor gets underway.
Looking good! I totally agree with you on what you said at the end , it definitely needed repair,, I don't like chickens Shelly wants chickens so we're getting chickens just hilarious! But I know what you mean by that, that's happened to me alot of times married 30 years
Job well done it looks like it was done by a professional. I like the way you did it a lot of good sense. Somebody's been teaching you the right way to do things. Sure, do enjoy your show And God's Blessings PS please say hi to your Dad .
With the concrete foundation and the metal roofing that may be the best home chicken coop in the country. I can’t wait to see the doors in the windows and the rest of the finishing in place
I’ve never seen perlins set up on their ends that’s an interesting concept. Built overkill but gonna last for years spend a little more now and save later! I like it I learned a lot on seeing this build new ideas buzzing in my head for my shed now 🤠
Looks good and it can double as a tornado shelter. 🌪️ Its probably something you already plan to do but I'd put some gravel around the base of the building to keep the concrete from shifting. Just a thought from personal experience.
That looks great man, and agree about taking care of your animals, what those hater fail to realize is even if you don't keep chicken forever you still have a very usable structure for the rest of your days. Pay no attention to those people who have no clue, most likely comments from a city slicker keyboard warrior that would survive 5 minutes living our farm life way...great job Ethan!
Going to have to get you some Milwaukee tools. I seen that nice miter saw. I used DeWalt until I was helping a friend one day making something or another. He had Milwaukee tools and a liked them so much that as my DeWalt tools and batteries wore out i replaced them with the Milwaukee M18 and M12 platforms. Best thing i ever done.
I had to chuckle at the statement, "I don't like chickens. Shelley wants chickens, so we are having chickens!" I know exactly what you mean, Ethan. Don't let the keyboard warriors get to you they want attention. Keep the videos coming.
Looking good! On your bailer, check the twine guides. I used to bail with NH 281 wire tie. When the knot would come undone, one of the guides had a notch in it restricting the wire. Just a thought, something to check. Like your channel.
Roof framing looks solid. Nice carpentry skills you have. Do you have coyotes in your area? Some people in my neighborhood have chickens and are learning how to deal with coyotes and foxes. You may want to factor that in the door design.
Ethan, if there is a Menards close to you they have an excellent selection of ring shank nails. We build decks and #9 x 3” T-25 star bit heads are the best to use with your Dewalt impact.
I totally understand wanting to be accurate. However, even brand new lumber bends and bows making it impossible to be be dead on the CNC machine. That's why it's called rough framing. Looking very good
Well said! Always looking for your next video. Last one you talked about going to Dad for answer. Well my u tube friend....A smart man does not all answers but knows where to find them! Looks great dude👍🍻 Thank you for sharing.
Farm Boy, some people just don't recognize how you do stuff. Perfection is not by accident. And why not while your there, might as well do it right. There are too many these days that just slide by. What ever happened to pride in your work? YOU GOT IT!!
She is gonna be able to handle y’all’s snow for sure Ethan. Another G’job young man👌🏻a couple boxes of donuts isn’t bad for the machine shop…still good people around, take care OFB🇺🇸
Nice work i would use Robertson screws. Not sure if you can get there since there from ont. Canada but there the best. Your 100% right take the best care of all live stock. Have a good day.
I definitely agree my goal is that my animals only have 1 bad day. right now I am using chicken tractors but has I expand I will have 4 fixed chicken coops with 16 runs. that is a huge investment but It is how I plan to live the rest of my life.
Too bad you don't have Robertson screws like we do in Canada: square drive is a sure thing. Great for power tool install and rarely strip out the heads (unlike Phillips or slotted).
Wood work is just like metal work, just different tools. But it's a very nice job, better to over engineer then make do and mend. But end of the day you've got it, animal welfare is the key to happy animals
@Oliver66FarmBoy well, you cut wrong you can't weld abit to wood like you can metal. But your end result is good and strong 💪 and that's what matters with these projects, and for a first wood project roofing, your end result is good and solid.
Really looking good Ethan. You are correct in stating that you should build it correctly to start with. This will last you a lifetime. Thanks for taking us along. Take care. Fred.
Yep
Your building, you build it and maintain it the way you want. End of story. Take pride in your work and what you have.
The extra time spent and material cost will be recovered in durability !!! Shelly ought to be pleased with the results once the chicken endeavor gets underway.
Should last longer than I’ll ever need it to.
Looking good! I totally agree with you on what you said at the end , it definitely needed repair,,
I don't like chickens Shelly wants chickens so we're getting chickens just hilarious! But I know what you mean by that, that's happened to me alot of times married 30 years
I hope Shelly's chickens appreciate the length you went on this roof ,😂😂😂😂Great job.
I’m sure they will.

It should do the job.
Your chicken coop is built to survive a F10 tornado
The roof is anyhow
For someone who claims not to know much about construction, you sure built a fine roof.
I know enough to be dangerous
I’ve never seen perlins set up on their ends that’s an interesting concept. Built overkill but gonna last for years spend a little more now and save later! I like it I learned a lot on seeing this build new ideas buzzing in my head for my shed now 🤠
Standing them on end takes all the bounce out of the roof.
@@Oliver66FarmBoy yea that makes perfect sense never thought about that.
I have had people give me jazz over the C clamps I use when I am building stuff. But they make the job easier, or even doable if you are working solo.
Love your attention to detail,nice job!
Thanks.
It looks Fantastic! Build it right the first time and you only have routine maintenance
Looks good and it can double as a tornado shelter. 🌪️ Its probably something you already plan to do but I'd put some gravel around the base of the building to keep the concrete from shifting. Just a thought from personal experience.

Some people just don’t get it.

He had Milwaukee tools and a liked them so much that as my DeWalt tools and batteries wore out i replaced them with the Milwaukee M18 and M12 platforms. Best thing i ever done.
I’d take Dewalt over Milwaukee.
I had to chuckle at the statement, "I don't like chickens. Shelley wants chickens, so we are having chickens!" I know exactly what you mean, Ethan. Don't let the keyboard warriors get to you they want attention. Keep the videos coming.
Gotta keep the women happy.

You are correct and no animal should be under stress and treat with disrespect. They have a heart and feeling just like we do .
Yep
You did one helluva job youngman nice job !!
Thanks.
Looks great can't wait to see it with the tin nice to see old farms restored properly
Thanks.
Ethan, if there is a Menards close to you they have an excellent selection of ring shank nails. We build decks and #9 x 3” T-25 star bit heads are the best to use with your Dewalt impact.
Looks great Ethan. I agree with your comments about livestock. Take care and I'll see you later.
Animals a living things to. I think people forget that sometimes
I totally understand wanting to be accurate. However, even brand new lumber bends and bows making it impossible to be be dead on the CNC machine. That's why it's called rough framing. Looking very good
Thanks
Excellent job
Good job Ethan. Keep doing what you are doing.
Thanks.
You are doing a great job on the framing of the roof structure!! Larry
Thanks.
That roof came out really good Ethan, Great Job!
Thanks.
Looking good Ethan, keep on keeping on.
Thanks
You should be proud great job
Thanks
I agree with you about lumber treated lumber now doesn't last in the south deck boards are good for about 5 or 6 years
Well said! Always looking for your next video. Last one you talked about going to Dad for answer. Well my u tube friend....A smart man does not all answers but knows where to find them! Looks great dude👍🍻 Thank you for sharing.
Farm Boy, some people just don't recognize how you do stuff. Perfection is not by accident. And why not while your there, might as well do it right. There are too many these days that just slide by. What ever happened to pride in your work? YOU GOT IT!!
Got sold to China with everything else.
Nice work Ethan. 👍🏻
Thanks.
It's coming along well ignore the the sideline quarterbacks lol do what you do your way brother.
Thanks
She is gonna be able to handle y’all’s snow for sure Ethan. Another G’job young man👌🏻a couple boxes of donuts isn’t bad for the machine shop…still good people around, take care OFB🇺🇸
Thanks
Excellent job!
Thanks.
Ethan, the roof structure looks good to me 👍 sounds like you got a darn good deal for the roofing material. Thanks Michael
Thanks
I usually go to my local mill and buy true dimension rough cut cause it's straight and easier to work with
Don’t have one.
agreed with your rant 100 percent.
Nice work i would use Robertson screws. Not sure if you can get there since there from ont. Canada but there the best. Your 100% right take the best care of all live stock. Have a good day.
I use torx or sds drive whenever I can.
Great job Ethan. It’s going to look great with the tin.
Nice work!!
Nice job Ethan that roof sure looks good
Thanks
I definitely agree my goal is that my animals only have 1 bad day. right now I am using chicken tractors but has I expand I will have 4 fixed chicken coops with 16 runs. that is a huge investment but It is how I plan to live the rest of my life.
Just takes time.
Wow looking good buddy be safe out there your buddy from Nebraska
Thanks
You should be proud my friend , your right if your gonna keep animals do it right or not at all !!!
You did a good job on it
Thanks.
good job ethan
Nice work! Plenty sturdy!
It looks plenty strong enough. Your friend peter.
Thanks
ethan,i reckon you have worked wonders on that roof..a really great job!
Thanks.
You dont need to apologize for what you do. Just remember, those that know do and those who dont become jealous and rant and complain.
Yep
Dang old chickens living in the Taj mahal
Not quite that nice yet.
@@Oliver66FarmBoy One of them should wanna give you that golden egg. If not, you'll have to replace them.
Chicken Palace....
Too bad you don't have Robertson screws like we do in Canada: square drive is a sure thing. Great for power tool install and rarely strip out the heads (unlike Phillips or slotted).
You can get them here, just have to order and wait. Most everyone uses t25 torx or #2 Phillips so that's what stores keep in stock
Good job , young man as everything else you do carry on Farm on l o l
Thanks.
Way over built, way better than under built. Nice work!
Yep
So will this chicken coop be nicer then the house when done. Jk looks very good
Might consider finding wood screen doors to have added ventilation but also have solid doors for security
Window screen from my experience does not work for that application. Chicken wire is the way to go, it lets more air to flow.
Build it to last. Maintenance free!!!
Yep
Guys at Midway are great. Bought a lot of stuff from them.
Wish they still had the lumber yard.
looking good
Are you building laying boxes as well? Are you going to
Thems going to be tasty chicken……..
Yep
Wood work is just like metal work, just different tools. But it's a very nice job, better to over engineer then make do and mend. But end of the day you've got it, animal welfare is the key to happy animals
Working with wood is a lot harder than metal in my opinion.
@Oliver66FarmBoy well, you cut wrong you can't weld abit to wood like you can metal. But your end result is good and strong 💪 and that's what matters with these projects, and for a first wood project roofing, your end result is good and solid.
If this chicken thing doesn't pan out, you still have a storage shed.
Yep
You will have some guano to play with
Will be great for the garden.
Yea it might have cost you a bit but it will probably outlast you , and you will know now your chickens will be in good shape
Hopefully I never have to mess with it again.
Way overbite for what's it's sitting on
