Building a Chicken coop shanty! We trade for fresh eggs with our neighbor but want to have more, so I took it upon myself to built a coop out of whatever recycled materials I can come up with. The pallets are on a sub frame, and will allow for easy washing out of the poop. I'm using old 2x2 for a simple frame that will be clad with boards from more pallets as we have a big, free supply. We have to bury the chicken wire in the ground encasing the whole enclosure because the mongoose will get in and seat all the eggs. Can't wait to eat them when it finally happens, MMMM!
