The Ultimate White Peacock Coop Build

[@Knota]

I have one of these sheds for my ducks, I can say that their product is super reliable, and can withstand at least a category 1 hurricane, as mine has been through one.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Wow, great to hear!

[@Knota]

@@whitehouseonthehill it’s awesome, it was 33 degrees when I let them out this morning, and it was real nice and warm in there!

[@limeycheesehead97]

I'm so glad your peacock/hen project has been successful. I can't wait to see the piebald peacock when he's full grown...he's going to be stunning. You should name him Prince.

[@jessicah7247]

Prince Piper is cute 🥰

Your children are learning so much more than any school can teach!! The 2 of you are providing such a great learning environment for your children!!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you so much!

[@jibranbhat8711]

Definitely.

[@juliemcgugan1244]

If I had lived like these kids, I'd have never been in school! I'd want to stay home all the time.

[@1erinjames]

I don't think I've ever seen a young male pea-fowl. All the colors and the white wings... striking!! Can't wait to see all the pea-fowl fully grown!!

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

The peacocks are enjoying their new place....especially the outside. Your children had so much fun helping with the new bird home.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Yes, I really needed their help... they were a big time saver for me.

[@sharroncalabrese6685]

I have watched them from eggs to the small cage to the big coop, I am sure they are very happy. I so enjoyed watching your family taking care of those beautiful Peacocks. Now I am waiting for the aviary to be completed.

[@theadventuresofsandyland4961]

Wow this is so amazing! Only one week to put this together is very impressive! You sure do take great care of your birds, lucky things! ❤ Your kids are so awesome to help out too! What an amazing build! 👏😊

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you very much!

[@barbarahouk1983]

Amazing memories your children will have. What memories I retained of my childhood, many were farm interactions. Many good lessons learned. I think you are teaching well. I wish many more children had this opportunity.

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️😊WOW!! I want to give a shout out to Eli for a wonderful job on his concrete work. My father had a concrete business for 40 years, and even though I’m a girl, I loved working with him. It is hard work; it is fast work; very little room for air, and I saw you using the rake remove the concrete around and then the board to level it. I was SO PROUD of you, Eli.♥️, because I’ve seen grown men who didn’t do as nice and thorough job did you did❣️❣️ i’m also proud of your father to allow you to work on this concrete by yourself, and I’m not kidding myself, I know he gave you instructions but nonetheless he’s giving you life tools and skills, so you will never forget and will come in handy in your adult life, even if it’s just for your own home!! Dad, you don’t have to be an expert to lay concrete. Each time you do it, you’ll get better and better with it and you’ll understand that the weather plays an integral part of it because on a humid day, it will take longer to dry and so forth. If it’s really hot, you can cover it with a plastic tarp to help it dry better instead of trying to fast. But everything I saw you were doing since I started watching your videos a long time ago. You do your best job at everything and doesn’t have to be perfect.! God doesn’t expect us to be perfect ❣️❣️ it’s mankind that puts it on us.😂 so, I’m proud of you and I’m proud of how you let the children help you as much as they want to and you allowed your middle son to hand you the screws and washers and it made him feel like he was doing a big job as well. I love the family dynamics I see amongst all of you and I wish more people could be like you and your wife and your parenting style and kindness.♥️♥️♥️♥️ I love the colored peacock that has a lot of mixed colors as well as white, I can’t remember his name… Chemo moment… But he is the only one out of the four that has the markings of a regular peacock. I snapped a picture of a KZbin video to send to my sister and my sister-in-law both who love peacocks and I know they would love seeing this beautiful bird. I think you guys did a wonderful job on the building as well as the yard area that they can get down and be outdoors safely; and I ,too, love the branches that are natural from the tree you hung inside the outdoor area because like your wife, I thought it would be perfect for their claws and what they would naturally curve their feet around versus a 2 x 4 a 2 x 6 board. This was the kind of thing I think about everything you did in the shed and run away for the peacocks. Last, I would just like to say I loved it when the two males were talking to each other in your “young “voice. I’ve never heard that sound before. It was just beautiful and made me smile.😊♥️😊♥️😊♥️😊

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you for your kind words, I'll relay it to Eli. 😊

[@tuba.mp3]

i’ve never seen a peacock look like piper, it’s honestly really cool also their honks are so funny to me idk why 😭

[@bekahpainter8156]

My daughter made me replay the honking part about 4 times. It was great.

[@acgray1972]

I've actually been looking into something like this. We are building a home by ourselves/ no bank all the labor by us and fam/friends. I'm starting over with a new flock. Our old property had an old homemade mini barn/ storage shed. I used it for about 50 chickens. It was great! They even liked roosting on the shelving up high! Plus some natural saplings I cut down. My point is I loved the shed so much I think it would be even better to do one of these kits. I'm excited to see how your weathers. We will build ours next spring!! 🥰 ( Also looking for incubator giveaways that you sometimes do so that I can hatch out some pure bred Salmon Favorells!! 🥰) Have a blessed week Becky, Jake and kiddos! 🥰

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Yep, really happy with the shed and run so far.

[@SweetCandyDragon]

Amazing peafowl, I definitely wasn’t expecting the honking. I am glad you haven’t lost any since hatching unlike last year

[@JustanotherRandomIdiot]

They’re all getting so big! Piper is getting really colorful too, I love those little honks🥰

[@_revivify_7175]

The peacocks new coop being taller than you guys is so cool that’s something I always want to go with my animals so I’m able to enter the enclosure comfortably rather than crouching all the time, it came out great! ❤

[@whitehouseonthehill]

It's close to my head, but I'm happy with it. I agree, I hate hitting my head when entering coops.

[@AcresOfAdventure]

I love this upgrade! The peacocks will love it! Love the real branches for them to roost on in the run!

[@RosefarmStudios]

You did awesome on the coop! No judgement whatsoever. Keep up the good work and love what your doing. ❤

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you so much!

[@Nunya-t4b]

What an awesome job. Eli is an amazing helper!! I love how you teach your children everything you do. You are such a wonderful Daddy Jake. 💛

[@onacona]

The run looks great! The only thing you need now is a couple of patio stones around the outside to keep the critters from digging underneath. Also wow, I was just looking for a new food storage box, the deck boxes look great

[@maxinemadero9650]

Your kids are, always willing to help. ❤❤❤

[@jayneward6649]

Wow, their coop & pen looks absolutely amazing, well done all on the build, love it ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you!

[@rezotydnic]

They are growing into beautiful birds! Nice little shed/barn and run too. Great job.

[@user-helloworld308]

Love this space for them. And absolutely agree having a couple of those clear panels installed for light is a great idea. You'll need it when you go in there to feed them, check on them, etc. Plus, should help with heating in the winter, let the sunlight in and warm it up a couple degrees.

[@rutha1464]

You are too humble! You did an incredible job from the concrete to the rest of construction. Best for prosperous and bounty in your pursuit of a white peafowl flock.

[@HenrietteAndersen26]

I can’t WAIT to see the piebald peacock grown up!! 😁🤩

[@dutchflowerlady]

The new shed is so pretty isn’t that a better idea for also the chicken trailers? Really nice and so cute that Eli put his name in the cement! Memories forever!❤❤❤

[@rm2828]

FANTASTIC build for the Peacocks & FANTASTIC FAMILY building AMAZING homes for all their animals!! ❤️from Montreal

[@Fer-iy7mw]

I recommend adding additional framing for the roof. It will not last during your snow season or high mind.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

It says it will hold up to 400-450 lbs of load on top. We won't get that much in snow. There are 3 metal pieces of support underneath the roof. It will hold up alright for the foot or less that we get each winter.

[@iskatas1089]

Don't forget to put hardware cloth on the ground aswell, because small predator's and big tent to dig under too.

[@galaxyzrblx]

That pied peacock is beautiful, wow! Love the colors of peacocks, even the white ones. They're so majestic.

[@jennifervinton2473]

Yes it is

[@rainerounduphomestead8942]

Love it! We use deck boxes for our ducks. My husband cuts a door opening in them. It makes it easy to grab eggs and easy to clean.

[@adammurphy1683]

I cant believe how big the peachicks have got! They are so lucky to have a great loving family helping them. I love watching all of your videos. Thank you for the great videos and keep up the good work.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you very much!

[@maryn8434]

White peacocks are something but pied peacocks are awesome! I’ve always loved mixed colors like that! It looks awesome

[@hellosistersworld9267]

The pea chicks must love this new home also it is incredible how pipers colors have turned out I have never seen anything like it 😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@marthawilson8839]

I enjoyed your channel!! Your family is adorable!! The chicks captured my heart! It was great seeing everyone working together!!

[@cezarykruk6020]

I Really Love Your Family❤ you have very Unique and Special Kids really😃😁🦚

[@renbpaap6289]

Wow, stunning new enclosure, amazing space for them. Absolutely love the natural branch perches!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks so much!

[@dolphyn2]

Beautiful build. I love the piebald, can't wait til he's grown. I love watching your family and farm grow!

[@chrystal4roses122]

You are so good for your animals you think of what they need I'm proud of you all❤ ❤

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks!

[@betrand.F]

It came out so good and looks amazing.I think the peafowl will really enjoy living there with a lot of space and nice roosting bars.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks!

[@MyBecky1973]

You done amazing job with the peacock/hen house, your children are growing up so fast. From United Kingdom 🇬🇧

I think it is so cool that you have this amazing ecosistem.

[@maryanncuccio3705]

I love it that Eli put his name in the concrete. Such a wonderful memory. Building with dad!!!!!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Absolutely... I really enjoyed the time with him on it

[@phuongvo3051]

Your son such a great boy , great helper ❤❤

[@KethavDoesStuff]

Man those peacocks look stoked! Great job!

[@shannonwestbrook9633]

Thank you for the update. Reminds me of my grandmother peacocks. She had about 5 or so.

[@Del_88]

Absolutely love watching your peacocks grow! Such beautiful birds!

[@miriam23774]

Love the new Peacock house. Your boys are so helpful 💙 Bella is such a cutie ❤ Love & Prayers to your beautiful family. Thanks for sharing

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you 😊

[@blaackfox533]

Absolutely amazing. Probably my favorite project you guys made all by yourselves so far. Incredible work with the run.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Wow, thank you!

[@lauradavison4044]

Fantastic shelter. Luxury peacock home. Looking forward to seeing them full grown.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks, Laura

We appreciate it!

[@thewaltonfamily7688]

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you 😊

[@melissanewingham6974]

Always a adventure watching your channel grow. Love all the animals and your family, is hard working.

[@Icluckingloveit]

Lovely video! The pied peacock is beautiful. I can't wait to see them when their big tail feathers come through. Their new house is brilliant, great idea. Your family is just wonderful. I dream of owning my own homestead ❤

[@whitehouseonthehill]

I hope so too!

[@kellyfoster6983]

Erecting your shed reminded me of a beautiful and funny memory of Dad, Mum and myself trying to put up a shed very much like that on a windy day. I thought Mum was going to helicopter down the yard while holding a piece of the side. What a great memory. Thank you

[@whitehouseonthehill]

😂

[@belindagreen6899]

You guys working together did an absolutely fantastic job. It is great and I am sure the peafowl will be super happy.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks for that!

[@patriciafaye7448]

I love the building project. Great job. Your kids are so helpful.

[@CantStopScrollingHelp]

This is phenomenal!!! If the aviary wasn't so close to completion I would have loved to see a line of these in place of the tractors. Such a good ideaA

[@VedaSay]

Excellent with the roosting bars, that gives a lot of nature back to the peafowls. The box could be kept side ways with the door opening up, and used as nesting place for the peafowls. They will soon need nesting too.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

No... peafowl don't start laying eggs till after 2 years old and really not much until year 3. We'll address that in a couple years.

[@honiebird3789]

Wonderful job! I'm sure they will love it, and you all can enjoy watching them!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks!

[@roxannsejkora1691]

Very nice upgrade for the pea chicks.❤

[@TheSonicJnr]

Glad u get to have more white peacocks in the family

[@EstherHunt-p6d]

This gave me flashbacks of when we built our Chicken Palace to house 100+ chickens, with a nursery room, a hallway for storage, a row of bins made into nesting boxes, tile flooring we swept and washed before laying down fresh hay, and a giant run. It's just a shed now; we took the run down. But I remember all those late nights holding a flashlight for dad while he was sawing wood. It was actually my idea to screw on the tile flooring because he was going to make it all complicated and use some glue or something that would have taken forever. Smart little me lol, I'm still proud of that building. I hope one day I can use that knowledge to fulfil my dream of having a tiny home somewhere quiet.

[@antiquehouseofbeauty1329]

You guys are amazing!! Thank you for showing the run build too!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks!

[@americanajooma4457]

Great re-purpose idea! It has been such a grueling project for you guys. Hope it works out well for your pea-babies.

[@koridigman510]

Awesome work! So exciting to see things coming together. It's always fun to watch your family work together.

[@IKTGWIW]

Thank you for making the peacocks comfortable.

[@lararabb8888]

LivivgTraditions just got a neat solar light that might help you dark shed problem. Also in the winter you could TARP a side (or 2) this would create a really good wind block. Then they could stay outside longer. LivivgTraditions also found clear tarps to use. WHITE tarps would also still allow lots of light as well.

[@CurtVance-m6y]

I probably would have put a little tilt on the run roof. So you can let the snow run off ❤

[@thayana_2296]

That a very nice space. Would be nice if you could do more of this coop with the run for the birds that not going to the averary. More space for the birds is always a good thing 🥰

[@morgandavis4828]

I love the new place! I think they must love it.

[@reeree6682]

Their new home looks perfect!

[@madginger3634]

The coop looks great

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks!

[@teresahanson558]

I have peafowl on my 30 acres in North County San Diego. I would suggest making the runs larger, (taller and longer). They would appreciate the space and will fly from perch to perch. My enclosures are 12' high. The males have large spurs that make them easy to identify from the females.

[@lararabb8888]

Glad they have this larger space.

[@wolfriver4822]

I've done concrete along with my family when I was eight because our house fan down on 12th right now They are doing pretty good we had to build a whole house while living in a small house with your constantly got sick in that one

[@BlackSwordsman32]

The shed idea is good idea honestly. My family have made a chicken pen that is a a shed but also we modified it to have an outside cage so they can go outside and be protected from predators like snakes, foxes and eagles

[@irmahardnett]

Beautiful Peachicks love their new home you all take such great care of the farm animal's I just love everything about the farm💙👍

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks so much!

[@kendacornell1046]

what a nice area for them. I have a peacock and I put solar lights up for the inside of his coup. You may like them for yours, Just an idea . You can get them in many styles and they are not expensive

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Yes, we have solar lights on the emu houses that are no longer needed there. We might move them over or get new ones.

[@Aria-f8u]

I love your family and your farmstead. Well done all.👍

[@elfiefromangelcity6142]

I love Piper! He's beautiful! I love piebald animals. It looks like you already did something with the door for the birds, but in case you didn't, you can use pool noodles around the doorframe so they don't get hurt on the metal siding in the doorframe.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

We put a rubber liner around the door so there was no sharp metal exposed.

[@deannaoverstreet4146]

Very nice! Love it! God bless your family!

[@dianapulido1807]

Love the coop, I would be happy to live in it if I were a peafowl. They're beautiful.

[@benth162]

Are your two girls Brown Swiss? We used to have one some 69 years ago, and she only had one horn, so we called her "One Horn Betsy". I remember my mom churning butter in one of those old wooden plunger-type churns that stood almost 3 feet tall and narrow at the top.. At sixteen I got a job and our local dairy and worked there off and on for 8 years. We also raised Peacocks and actually ate some of the young peahens. I had a massive bundle of male peacock feathers at home, that everyone commented on. Watching your videos brings back memories of the good life. I will subscribe to your videos as they are a nice respite from the craziness that is going on around us. Farming and Ranching brings is all home. I miss it, even at my age of 78 so I watch your videos as my solace of days gone by.

[@meercatt]

Nice job! I love to see animals have enough room to be humane housing. Looking forward to the aviary for your other birds in tiny chicken tractors.. especially the ducks. ❤😊

[@liahariscope6497]

Props to Becky for the great roofing idea, water and snow will slide right off of that poly-carbonate paneling!

[@retabates3799]

that is a fantastic space for the peafowl

[@gracewashburn8276]

If I was thinking right, the deck box would be used to keep the food in or you’re going to use it down in the horse stall as a tack box

[@TheBirbKing]

Yay I've been waiting for this video! The coop turned out really nice

[@kimcovington4395]

Such a huge huge blessing this whole project has been ❤y’all are really blessed by the Lord Jesus on your farm - I love your peafowl they are sooo beautiful ❤😊😇

[@chickadee3]

Ever heard of Dragon chickens? I just learned about them today and thought of you guys and your love of exotic poultry. 😍🤩

[@tuba.mp3]

those peacocks are very happy to be living in a coop that’s bigger than all the kids’ rooms 😭

[@Mlv2123]

The kids are outside so much that their bedroom size really isn’t a big deal

[@BatteredDonut]

I love it…can’t wait to see them in the aviary

[@OCAVIARY]

That’s a good coop for them, great job Jake & family👏🏼 Why would you not move all the peafowl into the aviary once it’s complete though? Surely it would be big enough for 6 if not 8?

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Yes, we’ll try Blue and Belle in there
