We bought our property 15 years ago, and I got to work right away...I might have started a bit too quickly!

I'm making some videos to help others avoid making some of the the many mistakes I made when I started my homestead.

He's nearly 2 foot tall and one of the best roosters I've ever had...he runs a great flock! Oh and he's the biggest baby/scaredy cat of the bunch!

1. How many square feet is each daily unit?
2. How many chickens have access to it?
3. Did you consider hinging it at the top so you just had to tip the lid up and hook it to the fence?
4. Are you replanting on a daily basis, the one they just used?


1. Whole system is 2'x18'
2. 13
3. Each "bay' needs to prevent access to the bays on either side, so I didn't see any benefit. The form factor would be the same either way but hinged would require a lot more hardware and materials.
4. Yep
