Building an awesome chicken coop! Part-2. Nest boxes & side doors, siding and more framework.

[@townandrurallife]

Another fantastic step in this chicken coop build! The addition of the nest boxes, side doors, and siding is really coming together beautifully.

[@natureartgirl]

Thank you! We appreciate you watching and commenting 😊👍👍

Lance and Cinda are master builders. I really like the looks of the coup.

Thanks Gary! It sure looks better than the old shed next to it🤣🤣It is getting torn down next😁

Thanks! We do enjoy working together! Hope you have a good week!😊👍

[@user-br2bf1hl6n]

Such a beautiful coop Cinda and Lance . Obvious your chickens are going to be the most pampered most of us have ever had the privilege to watch grow up and produce. Can't wait for part 3. Thanks for taking the time to share. Best wishes, Deb

[@natureartgirl]

Thanks Deb! It’s part of our yard clean up project 😂😂We both tend to be hoarders, so it was nice to be able to use some of our leftover stuff to actually build something 😊Hope you enjoy your weekend 😊

[@meganosbornharrell2769]

This coop is amazing but how is no one talking about Mrs. Cinda’s YOUTH!? Holy cow, I hope I am as strong as you are in a few years! ❤

[@natureartgirl]

😂😂Thanks! Building a log cabin will definitely help get you in shape. The chicken house was easy by comparison 😊I’m definitely feeling the years though😁

[@denniscarreno5882]

Wow! A mansion for the chicken…..again another beautiful work guys!

[@natureartgirl]

Thanks! We figured we might as well try to make it pretty😂

[@terrynida5787]

Great job on the coop - IMO this is the best chicken coop on the internet whether a commercial kit or custom design.

[@natureartgirl]

Thanks! We borrowed ideas from a lot of other people including Carolina coops. Then just put our own spin on it. We are really happy with it so far. Feel free to use it to do your own if you want😊👍

[@ahmdfarg3733]

It is natural that this wonderful couple succeeded in building a hut because they have already succeeded in the greatest challenge in life, which is to continue their married life happily. I wish you all the best, blessings, health and wellness. I was so happy to watch you.

Howdy y’all- fantastic build on your chicken coop. I’m not gonna show this video to my chickens cause they’ll think I don’t love them. Great job 👍God bless

[@natureartgirl]

😂😂Yeah, Cinda wanted a pretty one and we had a pile of leftover logs to cut up, so we figured why not😁Good to hear from you. Take care! 😊

Thanks Lance and Cinda for warming Melbourne Australia up.😊 Legs, shorts, teeshirts. Beanie, coat, and rugged up, soup, and Gluhwein.

Looking good! No one can ever say you guys didn't overbuild that coop...🙂

[@natureartgirl]

Yeah, it’s not going anywhere 😂😂

[@rosabel.y]

😃 My dad likes to overbuild as well...i think i see his thought process while watching you build this. Thought of every contingency. Oddly enough i grew up to be an interior designer who tries to think up ways to reduce material use without compromising structure integrity and aesthetics. Good job on the coop and the cabin! ❤

About sealing. The Hardie backer in itself doesn't need any kind of sealer what so ever. What I meant was any kind of sealing would be to protect the wood you mount it on. Such as around the edges of the walls and where you butt two Hardie backer on the floor. Use some decent silicon. Anyway just wanted to clarify that.

[@natureartgirl]

Ok, that makes sense! Thanks!😊

What are the heights of the walls? I thought you mentioned 8' in the front and 6' for the back wall. Great job. You two are a great team.

[@natureartgirl]

Front wall boards are 8’ and back wall is 6’8”. That gives you a 2 pitch roof. You could do it steeper if you live where there is a lot of snow. Thanks for watching!😊

[@saraipaul7826]

Hi nice work, can I ask you how much your expend all materials together?

[@natureartgirl]

The 1/2” hardware cloth is on Amazon right now for $139. Black coated. That is enough to do everything except the predator apron around the bottom on the ground. We spent about $500 total, but that is only because we cut all our own wood on our sawmill and we had some salvage metal roofing that we got years ago at an auction. One of our main expenses was the stain. So if you buy the wood and roofing new, it would be considerably more. We may have detailed plans in the future, just haven’t had time to draw them up. 😊

[@EmerickKing-j4o]

Us old people have to start showing the young people. How to do things. I said to myself I am going to start my own video, not yo make money, but try to help. The kids today don't want to get out there . And try . Later my friends. 🤞 me luck . Over and out. The bear 🐻.
