The NEW coop for our teeny tiny chicken flock

How's the Aviary coming along? I haven't seen anything about that in a while. Also you can save that chicken manure that you're getting out of the omelette and let it accumulate in something and use it in your garden.

[@williamrhea3535]

Good idea but it has to mature otherwise it is too hot for most plants. But otherwise it is some of the best natural fertilizer you can possibly get. Oh, I just recalled, when I worked for a nursery we cooked the chicken manure with dirt to make a very fertile mixture.

this sure is a great coop for us the less fortunate who suck at cutting wood hahahaha! Really love it!

[@ganjahead2k8]

Dear White House on the Hill, I like your channel and what you do very much. You have become my favorite channel on youtube (First Video I saw was with Bamboo hatching). But I have a problem since then too .... I sometimes forget to like your videos after watching and I think others feel the same. My recommendation is to at least say "Like this Video" once so many won't forget it (including me)! Much love & appreciation and best regards from germany!

[@SM-ir5ix]

Hello from Australia. The emus in the wild I have seen are in the outback and country areas which can be in drought many years at a time. It could be it is not instinctive for them to be in large amounts of water. Lots of birds use dirt as dust baths and water is just for drinking. Love your work by the way. Love and best wishes to your beautiful family.

[@leahheapp]

I always find omlet cages are great, but so overpriced for what they are! Just wish they were always a little bit bigger for their value!🤞🏻

[@juliahymel1973]

I agree 600 for that coop is a little much, my coop was only 150 and it's not that much smaller.

[@jessikaye01]

I mean....most of us don't just have free stuff land in our yards, lol!

[@jessikaye01]

@@SanderBauwens I have a wooden coop for my flock of 15 banties, similar in size and after 5 years it's still in good condition. I paid around $200 for it. It's 2 story and complete with slide out poop tray, lol!

[@leahheapp]

Sander Bauwens I’m not disputing whether they are made well or not, they clearly are and that’s what makes them the price they are, but personally I would not pay that price for their products that are too small for my liking. I would much rather pay for something wooden that is twice the size and may have to be touched up here and there every couple of years. If they were a bit bigger, then I would 100% justify the price because clearly a lot more thought and effort goes into them than your general coop or hutch! ☺️ (a rabbit hutch by them is nearly £500 for me and it is barely enough room for the rabbit to even move round in. A rabbit should have no less than three hopping distance for the length of their cage, there’s looks like it could only fit one. For that price you could buy a very well made two-story custom hutch with a 7ft metal run... just some perspective on omlet’s prices..)

[@faithhall4735]

I've always felt like it is much more practical to make something yourself anyway. We have a 8 by 8 by 8 coop and it was mostly wood we already had plus a few extra 2 by 4s and plywood, maybe 50 dollars tops and big enough for dozens of free ranging chickens. It is very sturdy too, all wood but it should last at least 10 years. I have looked at omlet's guinea pig cages too, and it looks as though they could chew on the plastic. Our guinea pigs will eat anything and everything plastic, so we really have no option other than a metal and wood cage. Definitely overpriced compared to other options, and not the most realistic either.

[@henrycastro-miller252]

We’ve had an omelet cube for 9 years and we love it! Since it’s plastic we have had to do some repairs over the years and this year raccoons were able to break in. All in all we have loved it!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Good to hear yours have lasted that long 👍🏼

[@amberfloren6532]

Can I ask what kind of repairs you've had to make?

[@rachelschiffer9839]

Little man is so cute. My son and him are around the same age and he would totally climb in the chicken coop too.

[@Dan-bq2mp]

Get Desi chicken or Aseel chickens to your flock, they're the ultimate protectors and are colourful too! They'll be a great addition to the farm

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Yes, I would love to get some 😄

[@pamelaskwat1312]

That's really nice chicken coop I really like the way it's set up where they could sleep and then where they can use the bathroom and then when they come out they could eat it's really nice and neat

[@jurassicjonahthechannel4912]

A good idea for your emu pool could be pool sand you get it at your hardware or pool store for pretty cheap and it might give them some grip in the water

[@christycarter893]

There doesn't seem to be much ventilation in the Omlet coup. I live in the South & we have extremely hot days & nights...my coups have to have a lot of ventilation to help keep the chickens cool. The coup does seem to be the perfect size for bantams :)

[@whitehouseonthehill]

It does have vents in the upper parts of the coop, but you're right, in a hot climate, I don't know how they'd do in there.

[@naomilizama4218]

Thanks for being the family that you are and for loving animals so much like you do! Me and my family love watching these videos!!!

What's up with the metal ladder? I feel like even a person would slip off there lol 😂 Good thing chickens have wings!

[@birdiecarter-black5522]

The ladder has tread on it...😉

[@sydneydavis5704]

Love you guys so much love what you do insirping with the animals but also with raising your sons with all these animals

[@lindamacon8027]

Just a suggestion, but you might put some non-skid black tape on the rungs of the ladder. That metal looks too slippery! With their 5 toes, silkies would have a tougher time with that, plus mine never flew well enough to get up that high easily. They always roosted on the lower wider boards I put up for them.

[@maeliori]

That coop area seems rather small, the chickens are probably wanting to go to the laying area just for space even if they aren't laying.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

They were just exploring the new coop... once they figure out the layout, they'll roost in the correct space.

[@Jlind9335]

Did you every see chickens in the coop? They tend to crowd together on their own. They spread out during the day and hunt for food and bugs.

[@hunterjack_]

I really should look it up one day. But still amazed how small your Emu's look. The local ones would tower over them. So maybe its a maturity thing. Not sure how old they need to be to be fully grown.

I considered the Eglu, believing there's some good design features in it but feel they're simply too small in the actual coop area. I also believe those wheels are too small to successfully navigate uneven terrain.

[@labrat9786]

@@SanderBauwens According to Murray McMurray, a very respected hatchery, this is their recommendation for bantams: "Bantams, being smaller, don’t need as much space per bird. This is one reason they are popular in backyard flocks. 2 square feet per bird is adequate if they are allowed daytime forage, so a 4′ by 8′ coop could house 16 bantams. " "We recommend a minimum of 5 square feet per bantam if they are kept confined, so a 5′ by 10′ coop could contain 10 bantams. " The dimensions of the Omlet coop is 3'3"L x 3'1"W x 2'2"H. I could not find any information on bantam headroom. Bantams average 9"-12" which means they have about 14"-17" headroom in the Omlet.
