THE EGG DRAWER - Building Roll Away Nest Boxes

It's back in the scrap wood pile to knock up another little project. During the winter it's sometimes a struggle to keep nice clean eggs when the chickens are free ranging. These tray inserts I had lying around are an inexpensive solution and the drawer system makes things even easier! Of course, if you wanted, you could make a sloped ply box yourself. 👍

If all dads were like you , this world would be an AMAZING place! Keep up the great work!

[@kaleis.2753]

I absolutely love how you are teaching the girls all along the way. As taught by a wise man who had cows a neighbor was chiding with him of how much slower & less productive it was to have his boys there helping. The man with a sweet gentle grin told him "Do you think I was raising cows? No I'm raising boys."

[@Julesmakes71]

Building really positive family memories during lockdown, the girls will always remember the time they built a chicken house with dad, very well done for being so patient.

[@HiddenBlessingsHomestead]

Keep up the good work Dad! Lovely little girls, smart as a whip.

[@Bioluvskatz]

What an awesome Dad! The result was cool too.

[@athloneduke]

Having the girls involved is both educational and character building, wonderful memories to look back on

[@christinaschaeffer1270]

I love that you are teaching your girls at such a young age how to measure and build things to be self sufficient ❤

[@FruitandNutcaseOK]

The girls are so intelligent I am glad she was able to do the math it's so important for them to learn this she wont be short changed in the market

[@chachadodds5860]

Oh.....my......God!!! What an awesome dad, with amazing girls. Very touching video. I love how you're teaching them not only practical life skills, but a way of life that's self-reliant, and sustainable. First time I've seen your channel; I was searching for his to construct a roll away nesting box. What a delightful surprise to find you and your girls. As a grandma, you made my day. Bravo.

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Thanks so much for the lovely feedback. It’s always welcome 😀😀

[@andygreen909]

Another super watch. My wife and I love seeing the girls getting involved and loving using the tools and getting excited about the eggs. Well done 👍🏼

[@ooslum]

I was pretty fed up before I watched you three, to be honest, the biggest one of the three didn't add much cheer but ill put up with him.

[@kidsnkittens]

So precious! You’re a fantastic daddy teaching your daughters lifelong skills! They are adorable!

[@tracymarshall2866]

I love the way you teach your girls and the fact that they want to spend the day building with you. Thanks for sharing this and I’m watching this to learn how to make my own roll away nest boxes and now I’m thinking ‘If you’re girls can do it then so can I’ !!! X

[@victorbunch7725]

I think the nap is a little to thick for the eggs to roll! BTW you have a couple of real cute helpers there!! lol really nice nest boxs,

[@shawnbrown1393]

Excellent! Don't ever hide the Light under a bush! Great to see memorable family time! Well done

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Thank you!

[@minutemark]

You are inspiring your children to greatness. Good on you, Dad! Your girls are destined to become makers themselves one day.

[@bc-guy852]

I viewed this to learn about egg boxes. I subscribed because your helpers steal the show. I guess they're quite a bit older now - but I get the feeling I'll be see more of them! Great job. And - congratulations on 200,000 subscribers!!

[@clydes95cummins]

I love that you include your kids and are teaching them to use tools! I look forward to teaching my girls.

[@Bluemart856]

brilliant maths and very nice eggs

[@Saladzingers]

This is lovely! We have an egg eater and my wife bought one of these black things, so came here to see how to integrate it into a nest box. I also have two little girls and a ramshackle workshop 😂

[@vivaldi1236]

What precise young ladies... Love the AstroTurf nest. 👏🏻

[@RuffLifeGoldens]

Love that you involve your girls ❤️

[@alexdoxey7213]

Now I'm gonna have to make a new chicken coop looks loads better than the nest box I made. Looking forward to seeing the full build 👍

[@stevenroe972]

Decent as always!

[@caravanlife-1]

Fabulous video the girls are wonderful and so very willing and helpful and very good with the maths. I wish that I could have done the same with my sons they didn’t have any enthusiasm when it came to doing projects together and soon lost interest. But thier Dad isn’t doing DIY day in day out, and my DIY skills are poor.☹️

[@damainkerek810]

What a great video! Well done dad!

[@yurimichellegudino-muriel2808]

Super cute 👍

[@themobilevaletco]

Excellent news. We are planning getting chickens soon

[@vibrantmonkey7469]

Dad level 💯

[@straylightc4b]

Eggcellent

[@nathankerridge3039]

why can't i double like this video. keep up these amazing videos

[@wanrazul]

Genius!

[@marknadin770]

Nice video Tim i've got chicks and ducks if the floor of the pen is wood put some sort of mesh reinforcement underneath thats how the foxes get in.👍🍺

[@cjp57]

I am looking forward to your chicken shed build. I have been following Justin Rhodes and have adapted his chicken shaw plans to incorporate a roll out egg laying tray. It will be interesting to see how you went about your build.,Tim Cheers Chris

[@TheRestorationCouple]

Justin’s plans are 👍, a mobile coop is great if you are running hens over fields, in our garden set up it’s a little different so will show another option I guess. For us it’s all about keeping things simple, clean and efficient rather than a super pretty poultry palace that is a pain to clean out and full of mites. 😂

[@BillsCountrysideAdventures]

Hi, did you do a video on full build on the coop? As can't find it. Making one soon. Cheers from Bill

[@martingee9452]

Did you say 'eggsplain' or 'explain' at 0:12 right at the start? I'm not sure...

[@johnvickers5750]

I like mine sunny side up please👍🙂

[@mickbroadbent6750]

always thumbs up m8 ,, 2 gorgeous girls even better showing dad how to do maths lol take care family

[@coop_coop007]

Ah, now I know how my father suffered.

[@tonitaylor5485]

🧮 📝 🧠 👧👩‍🏫 the girls never cease to amaze me. You and Jo are good role models for that “use the OG processor” 🙌🏽 and learn to use the new also. Appreciating the quality of both 😉

[@angiet678]

Hi Tim 🤗 I absolutely loved this video but cannot seem to find the video you said you have released on the full build of the chicken house. Could you point me in the right direction please? Many thanks 😊

[@philipsmith0752]

yes egg sitting video

[@Etna.]

Nice concept! Nice video! You've got two heavy lifting helpers there. I'm curious. Is OSB in the UK considered ply? On a Heisz and on a Rossmann video it was discussed. In the US it is. Here in Germany not. Regards, Etna.

[@TheRestorationCouple]

No it’s a different product although has similar uses I guess.

[@t_mac6866]

Did the video get released with the full chicken house tour/build? I can’t seem to find it

[@Rain-uh4us]

♥ ♥ ♥

[@mattsidebottom7603]

How many hens do you have and how many eegs per day do they produce?

[@TheRestorationCouple]

An egg a day this time of year. We have 8 at the moment but will get a few more before winter.

[@user-te1le7ck6b]

Excellent video wish all children would enjoy these small things but these days its all tok tok and crap rather than actual nature etc

[@ilovenitnat]

Kids with hammers, what could go wrong.

[@lovelovelove7083]

Don't steal the mother's eggs. Not fair.

[@TheRestorationCouple]
