Catawba Chicken Coop Plans

My Chicken Ark was a great success. It was challenging, but not hard, and we are all very proud of it.

Just in case you are thinking of building a CatawbaCoops Chicken Ark, here is my advice.

  • buy 1 more length of 1x4 than called for.
  • skip the whole angle iron business and simple get some 1x1 from the trim department.
  • skip the difficult-to-cut and easily-split shims and find something to substitute in the trim department.
  • if you live in the Pacific Northwest, make sure that any part that will touch the ground is cedar

especially of the female chickens. There are available nest boxes inside these chicken houses where the female hens can lay their eggs
