Build a Goat Shelter With Pallets
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 เม.ย. 2017
- Jeremy shows you how he builds a goat shelter using reclaimed wood from pallets in a limited space with a limited budget. Unfortunately, this project isn’t just cut and dry. He is building off of an existing shed with less-than-plumb lines and on uneven ground. This means having to measure every board and cut.

Jamie has the same job as me when helping with construction...all around tool holder and gopher! It's a great job...especially when you are rewarded with such graceful dance moves! Excited for you guys!
Exactly Ann! LOL!
Thanks for showing lots of practical building techniques for those of us who need 'building for dummies'.
I think I could actually do this now, just would take me longer.
You're welcome!
I like your use of levels. I learned about two kinds from you. The post one and the line one. Thanks!
HOLY MOLY that was a crazy big root!! I really like the post level. I like how you showed us how to do the birds mouth rafter cuts! it turned out great, nice job!!
I'm in the process of building a chicken coop made out of shipping pallets right now. Nice job on the goat shelter! :-)
Jeremy: for hillbilly engenering you got some nice levelingtools. Wish me and my dad had those when we did interior construction on my brothers house. Since I'm living on my own and my dad is getting older, I will get those tools in my toolbox one day. Maybe add them on my birthdaylist.
Jamie: It seriously make it easier for the builder when you hand him all his stuff. Even if you think your picking your nose most of the time.
Thanks guys on jet another video nicely and informanatly put together. Gonna do some catching up today.
Great job!!
we did a whole goat barn out of put together pallets and it turned out good too! thanks for sharing!
+Whimsical WonderFarm Pallets are a lot of work but worth it if you have the time. Thanks for watching!
This is going to be an awesome goat shelter! So exciting!
Almost there!
In my opinion that shelter couldn't be built more aesthetically pleasing if you used new materials.... looks great against that old shed, job well done Jeremy!!!
+Locks Bog - Thanks! I agree it wouldn't like right at all with new materials.
Awesome job!!! Very well constructed. Blessings, Laura M
What a great job! Yall will have the most happy goats. Love the life you're living .... an inspiration to us all! Good ole hard work and a willingness to do it. Thanks for taking us along.
Thank YOU for watching this circus lol.
Amazing job Jeremy! It's amazing how much money you guys were able to save by using the pallets.
+Ducklover215 - Yeah I'm pretty happy about that 🙂.
Well done! Can't wait to meet the goats🌻
We can't wait either! Hopefully very soon!
Fabulous! I know both of you are so proud! Now on to the goats!!! (I love goats) What I really like is how you built it without the mentality, 'I have to run to the big chain hardware store' since I can't do xyz without new material. Great goat condo!
Thanks Susie!
Great use for the pallet wood. Throw a compass/scribe in your tool belt. You may consider it faster for marking angles like at the top of the rafters. Also could have use the scrap 2x to make that initial line by pulling the rafter out a bit.
+diycentral - I have one. Never thought to use it. 🙄
Neat tricks especially with the Speedsquare
so you are a bangles fan. Just don't have a Manic Monday.
awesome video goat dude.
love your engineering and it works.
+michael adams - The Bangles were awesome lol.
Wow! This gives me an idea for a small lean-to behind my small cabin I am having built! THANKS!
Yes! They make for great wood sheds or garden sheds too.
Cool trick with the block of wood to make your template!
Great video! The dance was good too lol
You can tell a lot about a person from watching them work on a project like this :)
That's a great shelter!!! Good job! :)
Fantastic! It looks great! My wheels are turning now 😊👍
Our lesson learned: get your pallets and separate boards into a stockpile LONG before you have a project. Because breaking down pallets is extremely time consuming.
Finding that out myself right now! lol
Fantastic build, guy! I hope you're super proud of yourself. Wow!
Wonderful! I learned what a 3 4 5 is!
You guys are very handy.. cool project, awesome job, well Done! and love the humour!
+Ray Ra - Thanks for watching Ray!
Thanks for being so detailed.
Beautiful!
great job looks good you worked your butt off. def sucks digging post holes. its been so beautiful out here in Vermont. good job working together too. love watching you guys. your going to have some happy goats👍👍👍👍
+Stephanie Morrill We hope so! Thanks for watching!
Great job! Thanks so much for sharing!
You are amazing man,very useful vedio thanks a lot 😍🙏🌿
Nice job Jeremy, Can't say much for your helper lol j/k Jamie.
LOL no I definitely wasn't carrying my weight with this project!
Amazing! Great job, thank you for sharing
We had a pallet shelter for our goats for the last few years and it worked great! Just had to take it apart to make room for the new garden, but I need to make a new goat shelter soon!
+Whistle Thicket - Find a commercial window or door or glass/mirror company and try to get their pallets! Lot of 8 footers!
thanks for the advice! I wouldn't have thought to look there!
loved the video. that brid mouth was a big help to me. thanks
Looks great!!
Great job!
You have done a great job on your little goat house! Love the window!
+Mrs Soap Peddler's Homestead - Thanks!
Nice work Jeremy! Those goats will love it!! Nice price too!! TFS!
Loved it , I like to watch building anything. I used to build houses , post and beam and timberframe . We used alot of string lines, and the 3,4,5 method works really great and you can multiple the numbers for bigger spans. You should check out how to use a water level . This method works awesome and it is cheep and old school .clear plastic tube - 20 ft. and water . Water finds its own level . You will need a hand , quality family time. Research it , its fun and works great . The tube can be 3/4 inch outside diameter .Thanks again for sharing your adventures . Take care and Blessings . I look forward to all your videos .
+Gary Gerow - Yes I've used a water level on many projects. Pole barns, post and beam and timber framing are my favorite styles. If I build a house on the next property it will be that.
Nice job, looks great.
Someone better be fixing someone a nice big dinner did you hear that Jaime Hahahaha Great job on the shelter Jeremy!!!!)))🐐🐐🐐👍🏻😊
He gets a great big dinner every night ;0)
Great job! You gave me ideas to use.
Turned out top notch!
I am Impressed.
nice work!
the dance at the end sold it for me; now i wanna build another goat shelter
Great Job !!
Thanks for the video! I get anxiety when it comes to thinking about how to plan out and do woodworking projects like this, some of your tips and tricks as well as the overall plan layout and design makes me think I can make something simple and rudimentary for our chickens now that I've watched this. Thanks!
+Josh Teasdale - As soon as the fence is done I'm building a new mobile "chickshaw" coop that is a slightly improved/modified version of the one Justin Rhodes did. That video will probably be in about 3 weeks. If I can do it anyone can.
You guys mentioned that the last time I commented on one of your videos ^_^, I'm SUPER pumped to see it!!
+Josh Teasdale - Well the original plan was to have it all built by now. Our baby chicks came yesterday. Then this big goat emergency happened and the chicken coop got bumped down the list. Lol.
Such is the farming/homesteading life ;) ^_^ lol
For future reference; using gravel and tamping the rock ( beating the rock in to the post hole) may save $ vs concrete or cap with morter after tamping . looks good.
Great job. Congrats!!!
Thanks!
Very nice reuse of the pallet material. I do not know about goat shelters but I know our horse shelters are always open on one end, the horses can come in and out to avoid getting over heated and a chance of getting ammonia.
+Autumn Oaks Farm - Yeah that's why I put the window in. If I do close it up they will still have a cross breeze from the door to the window.
Looks very cool thanks for sharing.
That’s really nice Jeremy, it turned out really good, I wished I could have seen how u dissasimbled the pallet, I’ve had a lot split on me. Thank u
I think I did make a whole video on breaking down pallets. 🧐 Can’t remember for sure.
Great job
Perfect!
AWESOME
Awesome job! It came out really nice!! Give yourself a pat in the back, we'll done!
Thanks!
+martinezfrederic1 - Thanks! I'm just glad it's done. 😉
Love the video, very interesting. My only question is where do you get the pallets? Thanks.
+Lee Daniels - Find a commercial door and window or glass and mirror company in your area 😉
Thanks!
just a quick tip. A flashing where the roof meets the shed wall would save the drip of any water that will eventually rot the timber underneath. :)
Great video
Thanks for watching :0)
Pretty nice. Best
Who would dislike this
From here on out, use crushed limestone to set your posts. Easy to replace, allows drainage around the post's and just pack it in. Way easier than concrete.
That's awesome! I hope it wasn't affected when you had to raise your barn wall!
+Rebecca P. - Nope. Didn't budge thankfully.
Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living Awesome! It was well built!!
I know...Musicians don't dance!! ;) Brilliant Shelter!! Really!
+CjC - 😂
great job, recycle. i think i would have used 2x6 rafters as opposed to 2x4.the nominal cost is worth it in the long run.love your show.
+blue yummy - We don't get snow.
I was subscribed and I know I didn't unsubscribe, why all of a sudden were you not in my subscription lineup or even my history? hmmm..glad I remembered your name.
+Suzanne Garber - Oh No! Glad you made it back though. Click the little bell 🔔 to receive an email notification when we post new stuff. A lot of people seem to like that as well.
Awesome job! Okay Jeremy, was that your "Happy Dance"?
+T Marie - Almost 😏
Nice job, I often work alone too and use those same clamps. I also like the way you cut the video, I am sure you had lots of video recorded over a number of days.................bring on the goats.
+Joe Nadeau - So much footage! Lol. Doing the fence now. Hopefully goats next week!
I use a cast iron digging bar for fence posts holes along with of course a post hole digger and you cant beat a sawz all for cutting through roots........good luck
+Joe Nadeau - I did just by a nice digging bar for the fence post holes and what a big difference!
Dang. That's nicer than my 1st apartment. Lol.
Did you say at one time you had trouble with coyote I think a door would be needed if they get stressed out they wont give milk does it not get cold where you are ? some king of sheeting would help with draught my mom used to keep goats long ago they are very friendly, super job Jeremy you are very clever.
Coyotes aren't a big problem here but they are around. If it gets cold, I'll build the last wall and the interior will be finished. It's half done now.
Great job Jeremy!!!! Question off from the goats and you guys don't have to answer, but I see you're a musician like my son thumbs up for that, but do you have Native American Indian in you!???!!!??? you look like my grandfather did when he was young and he was Native American Indian! Great supervisor 😉👍👍
+Kellie p-b_FAM - Small part Cherokee 😉
that's cool I have Cherokee and Shawnee Indian and me I was just wondering because I can pick out a Native American normally pretty easily thank you for answering my question though you did do an awesome job though on repurposing a lot of the pallets and doing the goat shelter kudos to you!
Peoria dude turned me on to your channel :)
+MJ Healthy Living (Miss Judy) - Awesome. Welcome to the channel!
You need to put "walk like an Egyptian" music on at the end
Will you make a milking stantion ir buy one? Great work Jeremy! And Jaime you make a great model!
+Susan Beaulieu - I'll build one. They're pretty simple. 👍🏻
Thank you!
Nice job! One thing I’ve been meaning to ask, all your videos have great music. I know you are musically minded, do you make your own music for these videos? If so, can we buy your music anywhere?
I do not create my own music for videos. I just don’t have the time.
You will have some happy critters.
I sure hope so!
When it comes to this type of building situation, don't forget to use the S.W.A.G method ( Scientific Wild Ass Guess) it usually works best. I have been lurking on your channel for a little while now. I really like it so I just subd you. But something was missing. I love the great info your wife provides. I have dietary issues and Jamie has provided some great ideas to make life more enjoyable on the homestead, along with all the day to day chores of homestead life. However as a guy I felt that perhaps there wasn't enough pepper in the stew, so to speak. After this vid I believe Jeremy is the missing ingredient. Maybe a little more with the Mr. and the Mrs would fill the bill. Great vid Jeremy. GOD Bless. May your camels spit nothing but dates.
+Daniel Downing I agree. - The Mrs.
The pepper is usually too busy makin the stew.
Priceless! I just really enjoy Jeremy's work. GOD bless.
was about to redraw my like because it changed to 666, and I kinda don´t like that number ;P but left it anyways. love your videos, you all are Awesome!! I´m gonna persuade my man to build something- looks So fun and productive :D a chicken house maybe (hope you got a vid for building such a thing lol ) well done Jeremy!!!
Looks good. Do you have any idea when you'll receive the goats (pending fencing)? One of my neighbours has had a goat for a few years. It lives in a large dog kennel and is tethered by a chain. Whilst it doesn't sit well with me, particularly not on a long term/permanent basis it is their method sans fencing. Other than that it is a beautiful animal. Another question, will they need enclosed shelter as protection from wild animals at night? Thanks for the video. Good to see things grow, both the farm and your lifestyle.
Hopefully we will get them within the week. The fence and barbed wire should hopefully suffice for predators. At least it does for others around here.
I built my goat shed out of pallets too. I thought that I was the only one that saved and reused the nails from the pallets. LOL
Looks great but will you be adding insulation to keep the cold out?
+Kimberly Mayo - Probably not but maybe. With the interior walls on and straw on the floor, it should be warm enough here.
Turned out really nice. What kind of nail gun do you have?
That one is just a cheap brad nailer/stapler. The other ones are DeWalt.
Thanks so much.
haha, walk like an Egyptian!!
Excellent investment of time and money (little).
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
nice dance!
+kevin lodge - That's not even my final form! 😏
"Hillbilly engineering!" Look at you *GO*! Nice job.
+Noble Homestead - Professional grade. 😂
looks like it belongs. Side note... about the only person I've ever seen dance better than me.
WARNING! I separated the tendons in my hand pulling roots out...USE YOUR TOOLS!
If you think you'll have plenty more post holes to dig on the homestead you won't regret investing in a gasoline powered Auger from Harbor Freight. I think I gave about $175 after coupon and taxes. It has really taken some abuse over the last couple of years and it just keeps on going.
Why didn't you show us the goats in it.
Hmmm 🤔 .......
THAT DANCE🕺OF YOURZ JEREMY.
NOT SURE:
IF I SHOULD THROW 💰 MONEY...
~or~
JUST THROW ROTTEN 🍅 TOMATOEZ
( Don't Quit Your Day Job ) OK 👌🏽.....
🙃 Snickering ........
LMAO! Undisturbed land or multi-owner/pulling roots out of the ground is work.
Don't be mean.
Great vid, but STELLAR dancing.
😂
Awesome job!
+Mrs Barnes - Thanks!
