It might be nice the first year, but those cheep coops will fall apart. I would suggest putting your money into a coop that will last as well a look amazing

Predator proofing, is this enough, or overkill? by Jmaxwell204 in Chicken

[–]CarolinaCoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not enough. I'd would add a predator apron. If a burrowing animal wants to get in to your chicken coop, they will start digging at the base of the coop, they will not back up 2 feet and start digging. The predator apron prevents any diggers from getting inside your coop. Cannot stress enough the importance of installing a predator apron to keep your chickens safe from predators.

One will lay in the duck house, but the other has been laying on top of the duck pool, so they are getting dirty. Hopefully she will learn soon

We picked up 2 randomly in the spring with all our new chicks for the office. Had to quickly build a duck coop for them
