Chicken CoopsBefore The Egg Or The Chicken, You Must Have The Coop!!Chickens need protection from the weather, a place to sleep in at night and a place to get some fresh air during the day. Chickens live quite happily in a coop full time or you can choose to let them out to play. The type of coop you choose depends on whether the chickens will live full-time in it, have access to an outside run or larger portions of your backyard or pasture, or whether it will be a movable coop that can be relocated frequently for fresh ground. They will return on dusk on their own to their pen. A treat such as wheat will get them running if you want them in earlier, just hit the bucket and head toward the coop and they will follow. |
