Building a Stone Chicken Coop Alone, Timelapse
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- It took 2 months to build alone, but my hand-split stone chicken coop is just about finished and the chickens are enjoying a dry roost safe from the many predators that live in the surrounding forest - bears, wolves, coyotes, foxes, martens, fishers, raccoons, weasels and birds of prey.
To watch the long version of this video: • Hand-Built Stone Chick...
I am moving on to my next homestead building projects and will return to the coop to clean the stone of mortar and grout the joints later this summer.
Upcoming projects include another firewood storage shed, a small building to store lumber from my sawmill, a workshop expansion, a walk-in cooler and processing set up for wild game and domestic livestock, a maple sugar shack, a log sauna and a bedroom addition on my log cabin. Between building projects, I'm growing 1/2 an acre of food for my family, including an orchard, and another 5+ acres for wildlife and livestock. Most of our protein comes from fish and game that I harvest from the wilderness of Ontario Canada, and we're preparing to raise livestock again, including beef, goats and pigs in addition to poultry.

Don't let my chickens see this, they'll want a new coop.
😂
Right on nice little barn though or house or yes the chicken coop ❤😂🎉😊 good work thanks for the demonstration or different art's and Craft the kids and their kids love this 🛖 🏠
Your chicken coop is nicer than my house!🥴
As I watch , I 'm thinking , Id like to live in that! what a beautiful work of art!
Me too!😂❤
Me too!
plus you have fresh eggs every morning....
oh, and also an alarm clock that never fails. (unless eaten by a predator in the middle of the night)
C'est ma réflexion aussi
Love it.
A master craftsman at work homing his carpentry skills into a masterpeace... no word!!
The chickens have a better looking home than I do 😅
I hope those chickens are ready for Airbnb!
@@vslsnd2320😂 I don’t think the James’ family’s ready for that but who knows in 40 years, lol.
Hell with chickens. I could live there happily
Nice job.
Gramps always said, “ if you’re going to do it, do it right the first time.” Great build!!!
Better than 95 % of carpenters without ever being one.
Impressed about the techniques and materials you use.
He's worked as a carpenter before.. I can tell
He used to be in construction. Been following him for a while on his other channel too, he has said he owned a construction company that went belly up.
@@christytaszlikowicz4985 I see, I was under the impression that was kind of a office business setting, with suits and stuff in the city.
A castle for the chickens! No critters ( snakes, rats Mice) or any other wild life will be entering this castle! Great job Shawn! You are amazing! I learned how to to divide the rock! I learn a lot from you! Thank you so so much! Love this channel! Blessings to you and your family!🧚🏻🧚🏻🧚🏻❤️
Beautiful 😍
Reminiscent of the storybook style in California.
Looks very posh and expensive.
Great job!!
Hello Shawn. That is the most beautiful building! I would love a tiny home that looked like that! You are always are so creative! I always see how you have accomplished so much in life and wish I had met a man like you. I would love to do those things beside him! Anyway too late now. I hope you are blessed!
Chickens living better than me.

chicken coop / future guest house!!
Ain’t nothing getting those chickens! Fantastic build!
Other chickens are going to be so jealous of your chickens! What a beautiful chicken coop that will also keep the chickens so safe from the predators. I especially love the stones used for this build!
What a pampered chicken. With this amazing chicken coop is already a beautiful cabin for me already. Amazing skills, sweats and effort surely brings out the beauty.
2 months is very impressive for a solo build
Wow!
Outstanding workmanship.
those chickens have a nicer house than i do lol. very well done.
What a beautiful piece of work (and art!)! You ought to be mighty proud of creating such a structure. Thanks for showing us the intricacies of building it. You are a very skilled guy.
Yet another masterpiece by the man who gives it his best in all things. There's a lot of so called carpenters out there that could improve upon themselves by simply watching your videos. Thank you Shawn & Pup for taking the time out of your busy life to share with us a little bit of your world.
Incredible craftsmanship
Beautiful Shawn! Just a tiny bit jealous, haha
Shawn that is amazing!!! So happy for you and your family that you have created this beautiful lifestyle!!!
Amazing job with the coop! Splitting your stone was intense. When I did my house, I cheated and purchased manufactured. You went above & beyond!
Your chicken palace is a master class in craftmanship and artistry .
Amazing! You definitely know how to build, the craftsmanship is incredible. Great job!
This is a true work of art. Those chickens are gonna be living in the lap of luxury.
Wow stunning! Those chickens are so lucky.
I was a Mason 33 yrs, and all I can say is Wow Sean, you really came a long way since that first stone hearth, in the first cabin. Excellent job. 🙂👍👍👍

Have you chosen your type of chickens yet?
The Icelandic Chickens have less comb to freeze off and stand the cold better. Very pretty little birds, good layers.
I like the araucaunas, barred rocks and the copper marans we have but I think eventually we’ll go with Brahmas or chanticlers
@@ShawnJames1
Araucaunas have those pretty eggs.
I was just thinking about thriving in colder temperatures.
Very pretty! Nicely done! 💚💙🩷❤️🧡🦋🦋🦋
Wow! What a craftsman.. Heck with the chickens.. thats my dream tiny house. I sure hope your wife appreciates you & what you do.. I'm surprised when my husband is able to make coffee in the morning..😂
Damn Shaun, that's heavy work for one guy. Can't you bring up an apprentice?
Shawn, you are truly in your realm. We all should take notice and follow your lead, Sir.
Wow. Just WOW! Nice work, Shawn.
Beautiful chicken house! A real work of art!
This chicken coop looks better than my house (and honestly my house looks good) lol
Can I live there lol it's gorgeous 😍
Old video?
Amazing job Shawn, that's some craftsmanship to be very proud of.

The chickens will lay golden eggs in that.
Wow, wow, wow!!! Simply beautiful. That would also be a beutiful entrance way of a house of stone. Fantastic job. I'm so in awe at this most beautiful chicken coop. A castle it tis for sure. Fantastic job Shawn!!!
I will say this... When you set out to build something, you leave no stone unturned. Beautiful coop!
Wow 😮
wow that is just amazing & sure will keep your chickens safe & happy 👍🏼❣️
Wow, this got me emotional! Thank you.
💯 Shawn, that turned out absolutely amazing, stunning. Architectural Digest needs to stop on by and do a tour of the new coop 🤔
Should recoup the cost in 256 years. Nice though. Double the size and you have a decent home.
You are an incredibly inspirational human!
Gorgeous!
Q] What is the difference between CNN & the Titanic?
[A] the Titanic went down with ALL of its Anchors
Very impressed with the stone work. Looks just like the stone went up first even though it was opposite. Beautiful job
A beautiful build ….but…..all that just for chickens?!
I love your stone chicken coop! My grandfather was the first one in the area he built his house in Seattle (many, many years ago) to use river rock on the house
You clearly have too much time on your hands. Beautiful build, but the time to do it is what I think is awesome. Lol
Beautiful coop for those chickens. It actually looks like a playhouse it's so nice.👍
Amazing fortress for your lucky chickens!
If this is where you're chickens live I can't imagine what your house is like
SEÑOR JAMES, COMO ESTÁ USTED BENDICIONES. CADA DÍA , ME SORPRENDE USTED MÁS Y MÁS CON SUS PROYECTOS. DE CÓMO USTED NOS ENSEÑA CADA DÍA, A PREVENIRNOS Y A APROVECHAR TODO RECURSO DE LA TIERRA. Y ANTE TODO , A GUARDAR, PARA EL MAÑANA, Y NO ESPERAR A COMPRARLO TODO CON EL PAPEL MONEDA, QUE , DIA TRAS DIA VA PERDIENDO SU VALOR LEGAL. GRÁCIAS POR ENSEÑARME A , HACER, A COSECHAR Y, A ALMACENAR , PARA EL MAÑANA INCIERTO, DE LA HUMANIDAD. ÉL ETERNO DÍOS LO BENDIGA, Y LO SIGA PROSPERANDO EN SUS PROYECTOS HACERTADOS Y MARAVILLOSOS. BENDICIONES PARA TODOS LOS SUYOS. A
Shawn, I think this is the music that you used for your first video that went viral serval years ago, and got me hooked your channel. Thanks for bringing so much joy to those of us still stuck in the city.
Woah, you’re right! 🤯 That’s really cool, you have a good memory!
stunning......just stunning!!!!
The song choice for this time lapse version is great. Anyone who’s watched this should go watch the long version on the main channel too if they haven’t already, all the little details that went into the build are worth watching!
Very beautiful, it's a palace for your chickens
That is the COOLEST Coop ever. AWESOME job Shawn.
Only Shawn can get that much done in under 5 min. 😂
pretty darn bear proof I would say and any others that want in some night.
That takes❤ my breath away. So stunningly beautiful.
Beau travail pour vos poules mais vous deviez aussi poser des pierres sur les murs extérieurs de votre cuisine d'été, avez vous renoncé ou c'est pour bientôt ? J'ai envie de voir cette cuisine terminée. Bon courage pour la suite.
Beautiful work Shawn.
Beautifully done sir, great video too
Love the coop! But that chicken wire in the windows isn't going to keep a bear or other big critter interested in those chickens out... Maybe should have put rebar in those windows as well.
I hope the whole perimeter is electrified.
Looks like calli is ready to train another dog to care for new chickens..before anything happens to her. She's such a wonderful dog❤ her.
That chicken coop is so beautiful.
That is a beautiful building, but why would you build one of the nicest building for chickens?
Because he can.
У меня нет слов я в шоке от всего что делаеш
I am blown away buy what you did for your chickens!
Wow, simply amazing! ❤
