I love a great chicken coop plan and this is one of the best plans i have seen very sturdy coop and simple to build, The purpose of a chicken coop is to protect chicken from bad weather – hot, cold, wind and rain. In areas where the climate requires a chicken coop, the coop should be built to provide the chicken with thermoregulation, which helps protect the chicken from cold weather.
One method to protect chicken is to put an isolation material between two layers of wood or bricks. Because chickens don’t like heat, windows should be oriented in a way to prevent overheating. Proper ventilation is also important. Another purpose for chicken coops is to protect the hens from predators – especially martens. The hens can be released into an enclosure by daylight but should be locked in a coop at night because predators hunt at night. click on the link below to see how to build this chicken coop.
