Could you please link the Roofing you used for the roof run? I have the same coop that I am trying to expand! Would be very helpful because I cannot find the same color.

[@joanrichter4718]

AWESOME Video Kelly and Ricardo ❤❤❤ you did such a great job on the coop and the video! It did make me realize though , how MESSY my chicken supply area is on the side of the coop! I love the shot of the hen on top of Zoey‘s head! Can’t wait for them to see this💕💕💕

[@BockBockBouquet]

Sorry for the late response Joan, we just got back from Europe yesterday. So glad to hear how much you like your coop. Hope your grandkids and their parents got to watch this video. And it does not look messy at your place!!!

[@boostjunkieMike]

Well done😎👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾 looks good

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thanks 👍

[@addieanderson2043]

Love it. I just expanded my run. I have a Ron that was 12X4 withe the coop elevated 2 ft. This coop sat next to my 6 ft. High privacy fence. By closing one side I now have additional space of 15X8. I installed a automatic chicken door from the new run into the old run to give my girls access. There is also a automatic door into there coop. In addition I built a automatic watering station. In the coop I installed a exhaust fan, 3 small usb fans in each nest box. On the top of the new run I hung bird netting to keep hawks out. My new girls are only 4 and 5 weeks old so at present they are confined to the chicken house for at least one week. I hope this gives some of your viewers some ideas. I am 80 years young and just started to build 5 years ago. I have built 4 coops with runs so far. I did all the building on my goops with the knowledge that my husband gave me on using each tool. This expansion was done with his help. This expansion was a dream come true. I love you expanded coop.

[@BockBockBouquet]

Wow sounds like an amazing set up for your flock and you and your husband are very talented! Well done! ❤️

[@KatBurnsKASHKA]

thank you for taking bio security seriously!

[@BockBockBouquet]

Definitely, we didn't want to cross contaminate to area.

[@teenagardner3623]

Great job on the expansion much more room and looks good too. Repurposing the sides was smart knowing the dogs will get excited. Love you guys thanks for sharing this video

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thanks so much! This was a fun project! Happy to see the kids and my client so happy with the result!

[@PLJS2018]

Love your expansion to the TSC coop & run! Ricardo you did and excellent job . Love how you keeping the 2 flocks safe with she shoe covers!! It’s cold in Ga these last several days here in GA !! Love you both!!

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thank you so much! Sorry for the late response, we just got back from Europe.

[@backyard_buddies]

Your Chickens are super cute and I love them 🥰🐣

[@BockBockBouquet]

These chickens were my client's chickens, but I agree, they had some really cute chickens!

[@mygardenanddinosaurs]

What a great job. Lots more space for the girls and it looks very pretty as well as functional. We are in the ,idle of building a bigger run - 12 feet by 15 feet. It is quite an undertaking. Can’t wait till it is finished. I’m def looking for things to add to increase vertical space and be boredom busters. We let the girls free range any time we are out in the garden but it will only be a few weeks until we have to keep them in the run due to bird flu. Last year they were in from 27 Nov till 8 May ☹️

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thank you so much! It is definitely a project that requires some work, good luck on your expansion. That sucks to hear about the bird flu. Good to luck to you and your flock!

[@Murder.Muffin]

I would love it if you made longer videos 🥰 of course, live your life. Still I request thee

[@BockBockBouquet]

Oh cool! We usually don't try to make really ling videos because we don't want to bore our viewers lol. Thanks so much though! We do have some long in-depth videos in our channel like tasing chicks guides and things like that if you haven't seen them yet! =]

[@tamieboblitt7324]

You do good work looks great you always have great ideas

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thanks a lot! She called me over to see what I could do with her existing coop, and this is what I came up with.

[@carlamahlberg1854]

I need to extend my overhang

[@BockBockBouquet]

6 inches is pretty normal, but I thought why stop there lol

[@jessicaj8148]

I have a nice custom run attached to my coop and then a fenced yard for the chickens for added space. I want to expand the run so there is more security. The yard is nice but when o have chicks they escape often and it creates lots of drama and stress. Also I have had a hawk figure out how to find the smaller gaps in my hawk netting over the chciken yard. Something with a soiled roof would be great. The current run is great but get crowded quickly with a big feeder and the ramp for coop is very long too.

[@cackleberrycottage2340]

Great job! Love how how it turned out.

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thanks a lot! My client was happy with is and seeing her grandkids enjoy it was fun to watch!

[@dinavoutour7796]

We are giving our chickens more space by building a chicken tractor out of one inch PVC. It is 10x10 and 3 feet tall. We have 2 and 3/4 acres and we will move it to fresh grass every day. I have 10 ISA brown chickens and they are 16 weeks old on Oct. 24th. I needed to do this because they want to get on the grass and out of the coop…(easy to tell) LOL. But I need them to be protected. This will also make it easier to throughly clean the coop. Our coop was built by our friend and is very solid and is 6.5 feet by 13 feet.

[@BockBockBouquet]

Sounds like a great idea!

[@traceym.5135]

Is that a curtain or shower curtain? I haven't ever seen that in a coop before. I love the overhang of the roof and the boredom buster.

[@BockBockBouquet]

I think she used to have a shower curtain before the renovation

[@anthonydarwin8564]

Dude awesome job❤ It!!

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thank you so much 😀

[@ashleypayne6921]

Kelli 😂😂😂 the chicken at the end 😜 Love this idea. Expanding on something is a challenge but it looks amazing! Great work. My husband and I (mostly me😆) recently built a transition coop for our babies to be moved outside and it turned out pretty good. Y'all give me the confidence to build whatever I want. ❤️❤️ 6 more days until your birthday 🎉🎂 I hope you are surrounded by loved ones.

[@backyard_buddies]

Chickens are so Funny sometimes, but they can be Really Cute Pets too 🐣🥰

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thanks so much! Happy to hear we have any sort of inspiration, but if I can do it, most people can! Kelly and I went to Europe for her birthday, we just got back home yesterday!

[@BockBockBouquet]

We love how silly chickens are!

[@BushCraftyAlpha]

Can you maybe do a video with a breakdown on parts and how too for this build I have the same coop

[@BockBockBouquet]

I would have to build another one of these to do that, this one was just for a customer that asked me to expand this chicken run.

[@laurie8166]

I love this.. I have exactly one week and a half to move my chickies outdoor Into a brooder. Is there a video on how you guys clean up your coop shavings and run dirt periodically?

[@BockBockBouquet]

Hope your transition is going well! We do have a video on that last year and are planning to do a more in depth video on that sometime

[@eszhun2296]

We have dedicated chicken run clothes and muck boots

[@BockBockBouquet]

Yes! We do have our own muck boots too, but it’s not a good idea to bring them into other people’s yard and cross contaminate. They always go on when we go into our chicken run and come off before we come back inside the house 🙂

[@4WDJeepDriver]

Tractor Supply carries several different coop brands. Which do you reccomend for 7 to 10 birds?

[@yoliebean]

You did such a great job! I wish I’d had you build my coop and run! If I’m not mistaken, you’re in So. Cal right?

[@BockBockBouquet]

Thanks so much! Yes, we are located in Quartz Hill CA, just one hour North of Los Angeles.

[@yoliebean]

@@BockBockBouquet I’m in Whittier, about 30 minutes south of LA. I’m interested in one of the perch/gym things you made. I’m going to DM you in Instagram

[@keeleybonnet9374]

I have this coop but would like help on extending the run from the door. Are you near SCV in SoCal?

[@BockBockBouquet]

Hi, yes we are located about 35-40 mins from Santa Clarita Valley.
