My Professional Chicken Coop

[@ronanvanshookschookronshoo6271]

Hi, My name is Ron. I am a retired zoo keeper, at present I have many different types of poultry, which I love. Your coop video is great! And a perfect design, giving your birds a great quality of life. At the zoo we had a maintenance crew, that did all the building, and repairs.....Now, I am the maintenance crew, and a lousy builder,.....but im learning. I live in the Adirondack Mtns., the winters here can be brutal. Even in brutal weather the birds need good ventilation, which your coop explains great! I have 8 different kinds of chickens, both standard, and bantam, so I need many coops obviously, also I like the place to look neat and organized, I have groups etc. That come to see the birds, your designs, are neat , practical, and for me LOL, buildable....thanks so much. U2, for. Sharing. Your great ideas.....All The BEST.....Ron

[@LearnToGrow1]

You have a nice set up! We're building a coop...getting chicks soon. Just subscribed....Looking forward for more updates! Thanks for sharing and happy gardening! Misilla

[@bluelilac5]

Well built chicken coop and so well designed . Its great to hear you say ye just have them for there eggs and not to kill .. Well done.......Ireland

[@krisssaidisimiyu6069]

i think i like coop type of plan, very easy built can has been built on a small piece of land. i love what you have done for the checken

[@sahmadi1000]

I am glad to see your hens using those plastic nest boxes. I have too of them. I took them out because no one use them. My hens are laying their eggs on a a tub on the floor. I think I am going to install them lower this time like you have. Thanks

[@Holtgrewe7]

Nice setup, I plan on building something similar this summer. Thanks for sharing.

[@HowToGrowAGarden]

Very nice coop! I like that you've given them lots of room. Thanks for sharing, Scarlett

[@HowToGrowAGarden]

Hi Jordan, you can look it up on KZbin there are lots of videos on this topic.

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Thanks for watching! More gardening videos to come this summer! Thanks for the continued support.

[@webbsway]

I love all of your hard work. Great job. Happy Hens.

[@prestigewashington6463]

Chicken is LIFE.... I'm going to marry a chicken cooper when I get older

[@tatjanasutube]

Very nice video. Lovely Chicken house. Thanks for sharing. Loved to hear your chicken talk :)

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Great coop and nice looking flock. You might want to replace the chicken wire on the vents with hardware cloth, weasels are vicious and can go right through chicken wire. They are mostly nocturnal so not an issue in daytime. Your black bird is a Plymouth Barred Rock and I would say the red birds are Red Sex-links, commercial layers. Rhode Island Reds don't have any white feathers. That was a nice big egg.

[@grahamrdyer6322]

Nice calm video, Well done on your coop/run. I'm just about to build another coop for my ever expanding flock.

[@estherishmael-oku212]

Awesome tour! Good job!

[@paulabeattie8565]

Hi, We just purchased a two acre property about 75 km from Toronto and I want to get some chickens. I loved your video and I have subscribed. Thank you for the information.

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Good luck!

[@ace_roller]

Thank you so much for raising and caring for these cheeekins (chickens). Recently discovered you on Twitch from Cran and learned you raise cheeekins and had to see this for myself. Love your channel and keep up the amazing job. Much love and clucks

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Hey! This video is quite outdated, I have a new farm now with a larger coop and run for the chickens. Planning to make a video this summer about it. Thanks for the support!

[@ace_roller]

@@TheOntarioGardener Is it summer yet? That would be awesome and very much appreciated.

[@bullfrogs42]

Use hog rings to attach the wire instead of the snap ties, very fast and last for ever. Great vid enjoyed it a bunch. Congrats

[@prestigewashington6463]

Don't let that cat eat my chicken...... cause thanksgiving is coming up and my chicken can't have rabbies................. When I get older my dream is to be a chicken cooper, I FREAKING LOVE CHICKEN. I want a chicken coop for my birthday...

[@geministarr741]

Very nice set up.

[@renegss]

hahaha.. Hen: Do you mind I'm laying eggs here... Ontario gardener: you got to quiet down.. Hen; pook pook pook... grrr.

[@Gardeninggirl1107]

wonderful job - your chickens look like they are very happy :)

[@MandiMomx3]

Thanks for this video! I live in NW Pennsylvania (right across Lake Erie from Ontario), and I really appreciate seeing a coop that's designed with the cold winter winds & snow in mind! It definitely gave me some ideas for the coop we're building this spring. How are the spikes on the ends of your posts holding up? I have been concerned about having to dig and set posts in cement, and if that works, it sounds a lot easier!

[@richarddowner4292]

great coop, and run. thanks for the video...

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Thanks for watching! More gardening videos to come this summer! Thanks for the continued support.

[@crzcurrie5935]

If you feed chickens to much grass they can get blocked crop (blocked throat) so I only give it them as a treat. Just thought I would let you know and nice coop

[@tariccoenderitta6082]

*>>Simple tips on how to set-up your chicken coop and select your materials that will make building quick and easy*

[@itzbugbotboiz4196]

So this is where plateup eggs come from

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Haha. Yes!

[@100Ronster]

Nice coop, well done!

[@painchaud2000]

Wow that's a nice coop!

[@sgcarr01]

The only thing I see that might go wrong is the Zipties. The sun's ultraviolet rays will deteriorate then in one season I'm guessing. Lapping would have been better. Enjoyed the video.

[@blueparadoxium]

Your chickens look EXACTLY like mine! :D

[@apostolicinthishour]

Good job on the coop!

[@TheOntarioGardener]

[@bendavies9046]

Nice set-up!

[@vladcostea6692]

awesome coop , very nice !!

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Thanks for watching! More gardening videos to come this summer! Thanks for the continued support.

[@intermatical]

Very nice, but what about the arsenic-like compounds in the treated posts? Is there a concern about that leaching into the chicken's feed areas?

[@vernonsteinkamp1088]

I was hoping you would have showed the slide up door. I am building one also and just wanted to see how you did yours.

[@justiceman9492]

good vid.....very informative........

[@lupineg.9713]

for your vent i'd put hardware cloth instead of chicken wire. Weasels and suff can go in and they are vicious.

[@o61000]

Dude that is totally awesome !I just got my first two chicks ,I am currently building a 48"x42"mini barn style coupe with a 4x8 run.i enjoy your,e vids .Thanks for sharing.I,m interested in any info you may have for beginners.And again thanks.

[@nathanestes2574]

Those Are ISA Browns And A Barred Plymouth Rock, A ISA Is More Friendly Than The Rhode Island. We Have 13 Pearl White Leghorns (Great Layers), One White Cochin Bantam Hen (Uncommon Color), 4 Rhode Island Red Hens, Two Rhode Island Red Roosters, And One Modern Red BB Game. I Can Tell Yours Are ISA Brown Because They Have A Lighter Tent Of Red Because They Have Lighter Feathers Underneath The Red Ones, And Rhode Island Reds Have Pure Mahogany Colored Feathers. No Worries Though, Because ISA Browns Are More Friendly And Great Layers. Go To Google And Look Up ISA Browns Then Look Up Rhode Island Reds. Very Nice Coop.

[@margarethaskell3471]

I thought your video was great but how come there is no perch in the house so they can sleep on it at night. It should be above the nesting boxes or they will sleep in those. I think were going to make this one for us. Great idea.

[@vinuv16]

woh nice...ideas..

[@anna02w]

I would love a copy of the plans and a supply list for this coop its very nicely made Ive been wanting to build a coop for a long time now but it seems time always gets away from me how much would you say total build cost would be ?

[@StewartsUrbanEden]

Great video!

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Thanks for watching! More gardening videos to come this summer! Thanks for the continued support.

[@SouthernBelleReviews]

Those are Sex Links, definitely not Rhode Island Reds. You're right about Millie being a Barred Rock, though.

[@brandonedmondson2161]

Aren't zip ties awesome! Thanks for the video.

[@tigger1995Magi]

i want to build something like this for my rabbit! looks AWESOME

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Thanks :)

[@loriyu676]

>>Just by following detailed blueprint and build your chicken house yourself >>

[@Blade56762]

The double eggs will most likely be from Millie. (Second year hen)

[@freakygeaktwo]

you joined the chick flick group ;) great update sir nice size eggs let us know if or when you find a full egg in shell inside on of those huge ones :)

[@ArthurR]

[@BrendaElmer]

Very nice chicken coopl We will be buildina a new coop in a couple of months and yours looks like one we'd really like. How would I get more information on the dimensions, materials and possible a drawing? Thanks for taking our time to share.

[@TheOntarioGardener]

I since tore this one down and built a brand new bigger coop. 8' x 12' are the new dimensions.

[@isaacowusukusi7878]

[@buroakridgehomestead5995]

How far apart are your studs/fence posts. Also, what are those sleeves called that the 4x4 posts go in?

[@fairrey101]

[@learningnewrecipes9540]

I hate to ask but about how much does it cost to build a coop like this? I am wanting to build a coop.

[@HazeOfLife]

[@worldofcarpentry8010]

I'm about to build a run and this video gave me ideas! We're in ontario are you

[@TheOntarioGardener]

Good luck! I am in the process of expanding mine, and getting more chickens. I am in Southern Ontario, nearer Toronto

[@57aflo]

***** From reading some of your comments, it seems like raising and caring for chickens gets to be quite addictive!! LOL!! You seem to be adding more and more! Is it difficult to care for the chickens in the winter? It gets so cold sometimes here in Ontario!

[@pennytyson6078]

*****

[@miklosred4276]

The reds are red sexlinks. An egg laying hybrid

[@roseghadge871]

Too much nice sir

[@CoolNuts12]

How dirty does the water get? I use poultry nipples but I don't think they get enough water from them

[@TheOntarioGardener]

The water gets changed every other day. I have the smaller ones purposefully so the chickens always have fresh clean water.

[@CoolNuts12]

Ok thanks

[@lucecita007]

where can I buy the nice nesting boxes?

[@TheOntarioGardener]

I got them at TSC. But most farm and feed stores should carry them.

[@lucecita007]

What it is TSC?

[@TubbsTheCat]

sweetmisslatin Ram Tractor Supply co.

[@TheOntarioGardener]

sweetmisslatin Ram Hi Sorry for the late reply. TSC is Tractor Supply. You could probably also buy them at any type of home store or seed supply store.

[@Reddylion]

nice !

[@MichelleTMyers]

Making a chicken coops on your own is really simple and interesting thing to do. I've built a simple to follow help guide for constructing your own backyard chicken coop.

[@lucaspittman3794]

I am building a chicken coop and wondering how much ground clearance I should leave under the coop *****

[@TheOntarioGardener]

You don't have to leave any in my opinion. This spring I am upgrading to a chicken shed, and the floor will be 6" off the ground.

[@abcloft302]

Does mice 🐭 get in there ??

[@TheOntarioGardener]

I never really had issues with mice at the time. As long as you don’t leave the food out too much they don’t get after it.

[@Guns_and_Saints]

Do you ever let them out the coop, and play outside?

[@TheOntarioGardener]

They go outside when the weather is nice.

[@stibba4286]

Do you have a roster?

[@prestigewashington6463]

I love me some big juicy fat good chicken coopers

[@atidzetabaz1297]

[@jmjolnir]

wheres the rooster?

[@TheOntarioGardener]

I don't have a rooster, none is needed for the hens to lay eggs.

[@ianhertz2888]

do you know about how much this cost?

[@TheOntarioGardener]

It cost me around $400 I think.

[@ianhertz2888]

***** thanks

[@josecuellar3647]
