Hi, thanks indeed for the wonderful coop buildings. They are very good.

Am making a coop building using burnt blocks. It will be 6 metres long and 2 metres wide. Could it be okay for raising 400 chickens?

Very nice, they look really well built. I am currently working on a much smaller version of my own design. It will house 4 chickens max. and will have wheels, with the run being totally enclosed.

In reply to Elizabeth Smith. If someone builds it, have them put it on wheels so you can move it.

Thank you John for sharing your plans and knowledge. We are just looking around but don’t think we are going to build something now. Like your ideas, nice page, thank you!

I want a large mobile chicken coop with a large run. I am a grandma and need one built to where it wouldn’t be impossible for me to move it. Looking for mobile chicken tractor coops is discouraging. I guess maybe I could move it with our mower..just my husband doesn’t want me fooling with that either.

John, I have talked to many people and visited different chicken raising sites. I read one lady used rhino lining and loves the ease of clean up. Many use vinyl flooring, some just paint the wood and use the deep litter method (3 to 5 inches of sand or wood shavings/ sawdust). My four babies are in my pantry while its still cold here in northern Illinois and we are trying to pick which coop we want to build. I am using sand and straw on top of my old plank wood flooring. It’s easy to clean.

Please let me know what you use for flooring. I am planning on building a chicken coop but do not know what to put on my floor to protect it from the chickens and chicken by products, :o)

Thanks
