Jon finally said yes to chickens! He's allowing me 4. I know I want at least two Americans/Easter Eggers for the blue-green eggs. We will be building the coop ourselves (scary!). We have leftover wood from a shed kit that was never put together.
I plan on building a 4ft x 4ft coop using the plans on Purina's website. We should have all of the materials except for paint and latches. My sister-in-law is going to take Connor for one day this weekend so we can get started on it. I don't want Mr. Nosey around when we're using a saw, etc. If we can get the parts cut and panels put together, I think it will go together fairly quickly. How difficult can it be? (famous last words...)
