Hey everyone, welcome to Build a Simple Chicken Coop.
My name is Wade and I build this little blog to help people that are interested in building their own chicken coop. A few years ago, my son and I started our very own chicken coop project. It was actually my wife’s idea, but I went along with it mainly because I thought it would be a good excuse to spend time with my son AJ.
Who knew I would actually have fun in the process? I really enjoyed building our chicken coop - however it wasn’t all fun and games. Being an engineer, I thought I could draw up my own design - without prior experience. BIG Mistake!
I ended up spending a lot more money and time because of my mistakes. Granted - I don’t think you need to be an expert carpenter or woodworker to build a chicken coop - you should always pick up a good design guide, or at least talk to someone who has experience with them.
Anyway, that’s all for now. Please check back, I plan to update the blog consistently!
