Thank you for visiting Building a Chicken Coop! We are excited to share valuable information about raising chickens and building chicken coops. We are on the road to discovery ourselves and decided to create a website to post the information we find on our journey. We intend to explore ideas on building a chicken coop, Amish chicken coops, chicken tractors and unique chicken houses. We have noticed an increase in the number of resources available that offer chicken coops and we thought we might be able to consolidate some of the information. Besides being a resource for building chicken coops, wood working and providing information on raising chickens, we would like to be a sounding board for anyone that has feedback, questions or opinions on any topic regarding chickens. Some people raise chickens for meat, some for eggs and other people keep them as pets. We understand that chickens can live up to 15 years! 

As we go through information on chicken coops, we will also offer useful information about chicken feed and other chicken products that we find. We know that people looking for chicken coops also have a need for feeders and watering containers. People that live in colder climates also have a need for heating the chicken coop and heating the water bowl in the winter time. Some people are curious about the best type of feed for the various breeds or if it matters at all? The questions and others will be part of our discovery process and we will plaster all kinds of information about chicken coops throughout our website.
