have a better chicken house in the process?

Isnt it cool that raising chickens takes so little resources? There is a reason why the term "chicken feed" is in our language meaning something very inexpensive. Certainly that can be true if you are going to build a chicken coop. Chicken coops are responsible for the safety and environment for your chickens. The right chicken house will maximize the number of eggs that your chickens lay.

A healthy chicken will lay five or more eggs a week but this is affected by heat, cold, rain, and other environmental conditions. Your chicken house must be able to create the best environment possible in each of these cases. A house with sliding doors and windows is a great benefit when its hot. And of course you need a house that will keep your chickens and their bedding dry when it rains. All of these factors must be considered when selecting plans. With the right plans you are assured a good egg yield and healthy chickens.

There are many chicken coops for sale and these can really run your costs up. Another problem with pre-made chicken coops/chicken houses is they may not have all the enhancements that you can add inexpensively if you build your own chicken coop.
